Manchu Falconer

The following portraits of Manchurian falconers show the generations and how the skill and knowledge of falconry as practised locally is past from generation to generation.

Of the six portraits shown in succession I am drawn to this gentleman. As I look into his weather beaten face I can see the experience and knowledge acquired over the years. I am sure it would be fascinating to sit down and drink tea and just listen to his falconry stories.
