The Black Falcon is Australia’s largest falcon and is found across the open landscapes of inland Australia. This powerful raptor is well-adapted to hunting over wide plains and sparse woodlands in arid and semi-arid regions. Its dark appearance and agile flight make it a notable presence in these environments.
