Kazakhstan Eagle Hunters
http://www.pmicro.kz/~falcon/falcon_e/
My name is Tileukabyl Esembekuly. I'm the farmer. I live with my family in Central Kazakhstan, in the heart of Eurasia. Steppe, hills. Wilderness, places not touched by a civilization.With my son Abay we bring up birds of prey - falcons, hawks, golden eagles. Falconry is present man's business. Here there are enough fair games: black-cocks, ducks, partridges and pigeons. With golden eagle I hunt on hare and fox. It is possible to hunt and on wolf. Since 1995 we spend international competitions "Salburn" on the hunting with birds of prey and kazakh borzoi (tazy) basins. Here already there were the visitors from Austria, England, Belgium, Germany, France, Kazakhstan and Russia.If you not a hunter, come simply to visit on while yet virgin to a nature.I have the spacious hunting house, horses, hunting weapon, ecologically pure products and good kitchen.

Our majestic national bird is flying high over much of its former range and may soon be off the endangered list.

They ruled the skies on seven-foot (two-meter) wingspans when 17th-century Europeans arrived in North America. Throughout the continent, half a million bald eagles may have soared. But settlers blamed them for killing livestock, so shooting began—and the proud birds’ numbers began to plunge.
