Falco eleonorae, Eleonora's Falcon. Strikingly long-winged elegant falcon that breeds on coastal cliffs and islands in the Mediterranean and is a long-distance migrant, wintering in Madagascar. It takes large insects, such as dragonflies, eaten in flight. It has a delayed breeding season, in late summer, because it is a specialist hunter of migrating birds which pass through the Mediterranean islands at this time of year. It captures small birds in flight, using its speed and aerobatic skills.
