Near Sagsai village, Bayan-Olgii Province, Mongolia. Mana, a "berkutchi" or Kazakh eagle hunter, gets his female golden eagle back into hunting shape after a fat, relaxing summer. He calls out loudly and lures her with a piece of meat hidden inside a rabbit fur. Normally blinded by a hood, the eagle learns to depend on her master for food.
From my 'research expedition' in September 2009
