My reluctant subject at Ashford Castle in Ireland. Skellig and I spent the afternoon together as I learned the ancient art of Falconry; he was kind to me, but immediately pegged me as a push-over.

That's really beautiful. Few people knows that the first treaty of Falconry was written during the Middle Age by the Emperor Frederick 2nd from his see in Palermo.
The Emperor was a so extraordinary person, speaking German, Italian, Latin, Arabic, Greek, which was called "Stupor Mundi". The Falconry Treaty is still used by specialists of this noble art.

He looks like a schemer to me Alexandra. I would like to see more of your working with the falcon. Nice capture.
