Falconer about to Disengage Falcons from Quarry, 1850. 'When the falcon strikes his bird down, he immediately places one talon on the shoulder of his prey, and the other on the neck, and he proceeds with his beak to open the jugular vein, lapping with a smacking sound from the tongue and palate the blood as it flows. Whilst engaged in this operation, the falconer hurries towards him, and lifts him, disengaging him from his quarry by a method requiring for its performance care and. coaxing'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
