“U.S. AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. — The newest addition to the academy’s falconry program, Yeti, looks for his trainer after being unhooded. This hybrid white gyrfalcon and saker falcon can exceed 200 mph in a dive. Yeti is training for performances and public appearances.”

What an awesome looking bird!
