Saker Falcon, one of the most endangered species in the world now. Adults are captured and trained for falconry leaving few to reproduce. A price of $ 750,000 us dollars was reported on the black market recently. For details click here.

I did not catch a good in flight photograph, which really annoys me since this might be the only bird of the day we missed. Figures, the most rare bird and I miss the shots.

This bird is part of a breeding program.
