Garudas – Falconry. Yes, birds of prey kill to eat, and I am sure I would want to avoid rebirth as one. However, as shown on Countryfile tonight, the power and beauty of the birds is simply breathtaking. It is no surprise that the Garuda is the representation of the soaring mind.
In this pic the Golden Eagle hears a toddler cry and starts to take off.
If you get a chance, go to a display and support the survival of these rare and precious birds:

Lil’ L received a voucher for a ‘falconry experience’ for Christmas, and we’ve booked to go at the beginning of June. He’s really looking forward to it 🙂
The pair of Peregrine Falcons that live on St John’s Church in Bath should have had their chicks by now. There’s a great spot by the river where you can see them.
