Falcon
p>accipiter
There are 50 species of falcon-shaped birds in the genus Accipiter of the family Accipitridae. Also known as the "sparrow" eagle, it is sometimes regarded as a "true" eagle. Eagle is the largest genus of raptors. The falcon's wings are broad and short, and its legs and tail are long. The African little sparrowhawk (A. minullus) is only slightly larger than a thrush, while the northern goshawk (A. gentilis) is about 60 centimeters (2 feet) long. Falcons are found in forested areas around the world. The nest is built in a tall tree and is made of branches and lined with soft material. Each clutch lays 3 to 5 white eggs with brown spots, which are incubated by the female falcon. The incubation period is 4 to 5 weeks. The chicks will forage on their own 5 to 6 weeks after hatching.
