Yes, such as sheep, stolen from the Woodmen I believe.
Actually it's impossible to say which was faster, Nazgul or Eagle. Both are fast. There is some evidence to suggest that Nazgul are faster, though, namely that they were able to fly, in the Battle of the Captains of the West, from the Morannon, across Gorgoroth and thence perhaps over half the way to Orodruin in less than a minute -- of course, they burnt up when Gollum finally fell in. There is the feeling that they did manage cover a lot of the distance between the Gates of Mordor to Mount Doom before the Ring was destroyed.
