Birds of Prey

Birds of prey, also known as raptors, are birds in the Order Falconifomes, hawks, falcons, kites and eagles and the Order Strigiformes which contains the owls. I have worked with birds of prey since practicing falconry in high school, I studied falconry at the Falconry of Ireland and my graduate degree thesis is Ecology of the White-tailed Kite in San Diego County.
