Raptor Force
The PBS program Nature recently featured an episode on the aerodynamic abilities of raptors called Raptor Force. You may want to check TV listings to see if the show is being repeated in your area.
The show includes amazing footage of Peregrine Falcons in their stoop, and footage of riding along with a bird via a minature TV station strapped to its back. How freelance engineer and falconer Rob MacIntyre developed the camera is an interesting story in itself, and Nature has posted an interview with him here.
There’s also some video posted online to whet your appetite.
