How fast can a brid fly?

The speed of a bird can vary significantly depending on the species. For example, the common swift can reach speeds of around 69 miles per hour (111 km/h) during level flight, while the peregrine falcon can dive at speeds exceeding 240 miles per hour (386 km/h). Generally, smaller birds tend to fly faster relative to their size, while larger birds may fly at slower speeds for sustained distances.
