Rl vs SL Falconry
In France, falconry reached its heights of complexity, scale and magnificence in the seventeenth century under Louis XIII. His falconry consisted of 300 birds, subdivided into six specialised équipages: for the flight at the heron, the flight at the kite and the crow, the flight at the river, the flight at the partridge, and so on. Numerous paintings, tapestries and works of literature survive from this period. It slipped off the law after the revolution when a scribe neglected to include falconry in the list of acceptable hunting techniques in 1844 hunting legislation and although it continued under the Empire there was no legal provision for it
My dear Tempete! Alive and well! :-D
RL one is a "Harris Hawk" named "Henrietta", SL is a red tailed hawk named "Tempete" ((thanks to Vain for the name!)) She was lovely, and soft too! And her nibbles didn't hurt
