Inside the village where young boys train golden eagles to hunt... and this apprentice's bird boast

[The Dragon Master]

For these brothers hoping to follow in their father's footsteps, the sky really is the limit.



But the risks of chasing their dreams are not the fear of failure - but the physical dangers of training one of nature's fiercest predators.

Such majestic birds

My favourite bird

I love the fact that it seems that the bird and the guy are in sync with each other, and the fact that the birds look well kept and looked after
