Most of us know about the speed that a peregrine falcon can achieve when it dives on prey. This can exceed 200 MPH - faster than any other creature on the planet!

There are astonishing built-in traits that enable the bird to do this efficiently. One is the patch below the eyes that can theoretically help the bird by deflecting bright sunlight. Another is the third eyelid, designed to keep the lens clean and moist. Then there's the ability of the falcon to be able to see completely smoothly during a high-speed dive by having a very high "flicker fusion frequency".

But, check this out! The peregrine falcon has a small cone built into the opening of its nostrils. This cone will accomplish the same effect as the cones found in supersonic jet engines!  Here's basically how it works ~

When a powerful jet engine pushes an aircraft forward at supersonic speeds, air entering the intake will be flowing at supersonic speeds, too, and the engine cannot maintain its proper fuel burn. So, the air must be slowed down to subsonic speeds so the engine can actually function properly. The cone accomplishes this.

It's similar in the peregrine falcon. The air pressure caused when it dives so fast can actually injure its lungs, so the small cone at the nostrils accomplishes a similar effect as the jet engine ~ it reduces the air pressure into the lungs, thereby protecting them!

Now, there are too many impossibilities if a person wants to believe that all of these features randomly evolved. First, it must be remembered that mutations are RANDOM, and undirected by the environment. Second, how could this bird have then mutated to perfection all of the necessary components and equipment to make a steep, fast dive safe and successful, while other birds that don't need these features don't have them? 

That doesn't make any sense at all!  Original design does!
