FALCON, AIR FORCE ACADEMY
You never know which bird of prey you might see during AFA public performances, including football games and cadet wing parades. There’s Zeus, the American kestrel; Nova, the full white-phase gyrfalcon; Karena, the gyr-peregrine hybrid; and Cairo, the anatum peregrine falcon, among others. The birds are flown throughout the year to keep them in good health.
