I think they're probably similarly sized. Prey is a similar size in both cases.

Ahh

Nankeen - 31 to 35cm long

American - 12 (dunno about that) to 27cm long.

Wow. That's a little falcon.

Yes I think about 19-27cm (on our side of the world about 7-8 inches), I could not believe the first one I saw in the wild was actually a Raptor, it looked more like a Sparrow at first glance.
