Question by FoxStride: What are the diferences between falcons, hawks, and eagles?
I know that they are all birds of prey, what else distinguishes them from each other?
I would like to know for future references.

Answer by Audball (waiting and wishing)
Eagles and hawks are in the same family, Accipitridae, while falcons share only their class, Aves.
Eagles are the largest, with falcons as the smallest of the three and hawks in the middle. Eagles are relatively powerfully built, with a heavy head and bill. Falcons are built for high-speed diving, which is why they have thin, pointed wings. Hawks have the sharpest vision, with long tails and high intelligence.
