Falcons Primary Logo

The Atlanta Falcons have been a professional football team since 1965, and over the years they have had many different logos. The original logo was created by Lamar Dodd, an artist from Georgia. It featured a black falcon with red eyes and talons clutching a football in its claws. This logo was only used for two seasons before it was replaced by another design in 1967 which featured the same falcon but this time perched atop an orange circle that contained the words “Atlanta Falcons” written around it in white lettering.

This logo remained unchanged until 1989 when it underwent some slight modifications to give it more of a modern look; these changes included replacing the wordmark with one that had sharper edges as well as adding silver accents to both sides of the bird's wings and tail feathers giving them more depth than before. In 2003, yet another redesign took place which saw even bolder colors being used along with cleaner lines making up both parts of their current primary emblem; this version has become so popular among fans that most people consider it to be synonymous with their beloved franchise today!

Overall, there is no denying how much pride Atlanta Falcons supporters take in their team’s iconic symbol - after all these years (and several redesigns) they still remain loyal to what started out as just a simple sketch back then: A fierce-looking black Falcon grasping onto an oval-shaped ball representing strength & determination while proudly standing atop its home city name – something every fan can relate too regardless if you are cheering on offense or defense side-lines each week!
