About Orange-breasted Falcon
The orange-breasted falcon is a bird of the falcon family. It is probably closely related to and looks like a larger version of the bat falcon. These two, in turn, are probably closest to the aplomado falcon and constitute a rather old American lineage of Falco. It is found from southern Mexico to northern Argentina.
