Speed, focus and freedom
The falcon moves quickly

The falcon fixes on a target
A focused hunt can represent the concentration needed to follow through on a goal. Think about what deserves that effort and what you can let fall out of view.
A sense of freedom
The bird can bring the appeal of independence or a wider view into focus. Consider what you would choose if you had more room to act on your own judgement.
