Peregrine Spring

A Master Falconer's Extraordinary Life with Birds of Prey

De: Nancy Cowan

Narrado por: Janet Metzger

Peregrine Spring, Nancy Cowan’s memoir of her 30 years living intimately with raptors, gives us a new perspective on the relationship between humans and the natural world. Cowan shares her experiences running a world-famous falconry school, and the lessons she’s learned from her birds. From retrieving her falcon from the local police "lock up", to a heartbreaking race to save her young peregrine from attack by a wild hawk, Cowan’s life is a constant, ever-changing adventure. Cowan’s birds have immersed her so much into their world that she has found herself courted by a Goshawk and bossed about by a Harris' Hawk. The audiobook carries her listeners along, so they, too, meet hawks and falcons in ways they never imagined possible.
