Ready for take off - Saudi Arabia
I had the chance to see a falcon hunt in the desert. One more time, all started with tea, coffee, and dates under a huge tent made by bebouins, but which provides TV, radio, fire, etc...
The hunt is simple: the men freed a pigeon and once he's 20 meters far, they remove the mask to the falcon which chases the bird.
The hunt is short, but the men must follow the falcon with their 4 wheels in order not to lose it!
Once the falcon has killed the pigeon, the master offers the head and the heart to the falcon.
Impressive to see, even if it is, i know, so cruel...
