The falcon is a bird of prey, meaning that it pursues other animals for food. It is active during the day and is characterized by long, pointed wings and swift, powerful flight. Some 60 species belong to the Falconidae family, which includes such birds as the caracaras, falconets, forest falcons, and the merlin.
Compared to other birds of prey, the fossil record of the falcons is not well distributed in time. The oldest fossils tentatively assigned to this genus are from the Late Miocene, less than 10 million years ago. This coincides with a period in which many modern genera of birds became recognizable in the fossil record.
