Saturday 29 December

During 2012 I was lucky enough to get a close look at two NZ Falcons. First of all, along with hordes of children and parents, I saw Wilson at the Blenheim Library when he made a visit with his handler.  Later, at an expo in the stadium, Fern was brought along a couple of times and I was able to get much closer and talk to her minder.  The birds are trained as advocacy birds for the Falcon Trust and Fern didn't mind in the least having her photo taken.  It is probably my favourite photo for 2012.
And here she is having a snack.
