The highlight of the festival’s trade show was a falconer and his 17 birds. Twice a day he would introduce his birds, give a little history about each one and demonstrate the flying abilities of 2 or 3. Now when I watched, it seemed most of the birds did not really co-operate, but I enjoyed them anyway! Here are 13 members of his beautiful bird family………

American Kestrel

Eagle Owl – he was huge!!

I never knew there would so many kids of owls!!





what was Mother Nature thinking????


this is the national bird of Iceland


This was my favorite – a snowy owl and he was napping every time I saw him. The falconer would kiss the top of his head when he introduced him and explain that the snowy owl was an old guy so he just lets him sleep.
Hope you enjoyed!
