Falcon

What the tradition holds

Read as focus and decisive speed: knowing the moment and taking it without a second pass.

Where that reading came from

A peregrine stoops at over 300 km/h and takes its prey in the air on the first attempt. The symbol is that dive.

Falcons nest on tall buildings and bridges now. A sighting says something about the city as often as about the day.
