The Arabian hunters...

Life’s a game for these great raptors
A treasured tradition’s techniques must be altered, says the new law of the land, compelling the lords of the United Kingdom to pull out of their top hats a replacement to the good ol’ hounds for catching game. While this winter, many will stoop to sneak through the loopholes of the 2004 Hunting Act, others look towards nature’s feathered sailors of the sky officially engaged in the 4000 years old sport of falconry. Soaring through the sky, the falcons pursue their prey, and when it’s time, they tear through the blanket of clouds and swoop down lashing out at the quarry! Hot in pursuit, the falconer accompanied by his companions gallop onto the scene just in time; sitting tall on his steed, he holds out his gloved hand and the falcon flies back to his master.
