Crazy fast

I found a headless Merlin in my woods this morning & was wondering how/what happened. Got some suspicions now. Very cool video. Wish I could slow it more.
 
That was a prairie falcon and, like peregrines, they can reach close to 200 mph on their hunting dives. They curl their talons up into great big balls and that's how they dispatch their prey. Amazing video. Thanks for sharing!
