Represented in Europe by 10 species out of 60 spread all around the world, falcons are distinguished by their powerful, angled, long and slender wings. The beak; distinctively short, has a characteristic of “tooth” on the upper mandible. The eyes are brown or turning to be darker for some. In addition, many species have eyes on the cheek level. Finally, the paws are armed with long, slender fingers ending by sharp talons.
