Falcons Are Favorites
Son lives in mountains and falcons are frequent flyers there. Against the background of Pike's Peak, the predatory birds soar over the open fields looking for prey. Once a ground squirrel is spotted, the falcon circles ever lower until the final descent to clinch the hapless animal with its powerful talons. The entire hunt may take just a few seconds, but to observers it's almost balletic and so graceful to behold. My son never tires of watching this spectacle, and I gave him the falcon necklace to remind him of the power and beauty of Nature's forces.
