Summary: A bird that mates in the air is the falcon, which flies to the highest height it can and mates while falling down to the ground. Explore the mating habits of various birds with tips from a pet store employee in this free video on types of birds.
"Hi this is Jennica from Pet Planet in Riverton, UT. We're going to be talking about what birds mate in the air. The falcon's will actually kind of mate in the air. The female actually will raise till the highest point to where she can't fly anymore, and the male will actually get on top of her and they kind of stop flying and will just start falling and mating while they're in the air. Eagles actually don't mate in the air, but they try to get as high in the air as possible. The males will actually get to the tallest tree, to the tallest place, and the tallest mountain and will actually build a really big nest to impress the female, and the higher the tree the bigger the nest, the more the female will be attracted and then the female will so o.k. I'm ready and they will mate. You have any further questions you can contact us as petplanetriverton@gmail.com."
