This video was filmed during my month long Dialogue program in Ballyvaughan, Ireland while attending Northeastern University. It shows the Burren Birds of Prey bird show that we attended in Ballyvaughan.
The footage is also part of a larger project I have finished titled Éire: My Trip To Ireland, a documentary describing the events that occurred during my time in Ballyvaughan.
I realized that I couldn't possibly fit all of the footage from my trip into the documentary, so I've decided to also produce a few side videos that can further display specific events from the Dialogue. The entire documentary can be found on Youtube.
The audio in the video is Bridge 2 by Toju Ometoruwa.
This was shot on a Canon EOS Rebel T2i with a Canon 28mm f/1.8 lens. Post production was done in Final Cut Pro and Adobe Photoshop.

Simon the Lanner Falcon has his hood removed and immediately checks his surroundings for bigger falcons (a family of Peregrines that live up in the rocky hills you can see behind Ian, the presenter). Once he is comfortable, he takes a higher perch and assesses he chances of an easy meal.
Finally, the hunt begins! Ian swings the lure and Simon swoops down at excess of 60mph to tag it. Simon only eats when he manages to grab the lure, so Ian has to make sure he gets plenty of exercise before Simon gets his reward.
