A fascinating book that the (z. T. never described) hunting strategies of peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) in Kanda (Vancouver Iceland and others) describes and puts them in an eco-ethological context. The observations of the author give a deep insight into predator-prey systems and food webs that were never published in this way. In addition, the text is linguistically elegant, read almost lyrical and a joy. A must for every person interested in raptors, he is an ornithologist, falconers or just a bird of prey lovers.
