They're an interesting bird, when my son's dove got hammered I stepped off the verandah to where it was lying, the falcon had disappeared. Picking it up I was startled by a movement just a few feet...

Used to be a bloke on the Hunting and Fishing forum (Raptor) who did 'falcon nest counting' on cut over forestry blocks who was constantly getting whacked on the head. I asked him why he didn't wear...

Yeah - I had to look up 'Pengy's' Russian Steppe Eagle, a new one to me. They're a big bird and remind me of a photo I saw of a 'hunted' Harrier chasing down a pukeko. That bird had some 'curry' on...
