Do you know that the falcon （猎鹰） is among the fastest animals in the world？It can fly at a speed of about 200 miles per hour．You might think a bird that could fly so fast would be safe from most types of danger．Unfortunately，that is not true．By the 1970s

In America，a pesticide，a chemical，called DDT was harming the falcon eggs．Luckily，DDT is no longer used．The number of falcons is rising now．

One unusual thing about falcons is that they like to make their nests （巢） in high places．In nature，they often nest on mountaintops and on the sides of cliffs （悬崖）

They also like to return to the same nesting place every year．Both the mother and father falcons help to raise the babies．The mother stays more time in the nest．

The father hunts and brings back food for her and the babies．

Many people all around the country work very hard to help falcons live to adulthood．There are even video cameras fixed up in many places．This way，people can make sure that the birds and their eggs stay protected．Falcons are lucky to have so many people who keep an eye on them．
