This falcon was found picking at its meal in an urban landscape, not far from a railroad. In medieval times, it was no uncommon for people to train falcons to hunt for them. Today, it seems, it is more common to encounter a falcon too feisty to do any man or woman's bidding. Of course, you might not be so willing to help a species that nearly brought your kind to extinction. This falcon only wants to look out for himself.
