When in captivity, the falconer puts a hood on the bird to keep it calm. It stays calm because it thinks it is night time!
The Peregrine Falcon is the fastest Bird of Prey in the sky and it can catch and kill a pigeon in flight.
They fly very high in the sky and when they see the pigeon they swoop down by closing their wings and galling like stones until they hit the pigeon with their tallons, killing it instantly.
