Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) Falcão-peregrino

Famed as the fastest recorded life-form on the planet, we are lucky enough to have Peregrines nesting nearby on the cliffs of the west coast, and good views can usually be had from above. The female is appreciably larger than the male. It is a resident species throughout the majority of Portugal, though there is a more widespread distribution during the winter months.
