Portrait of a peregrine falcon ...

Portrait of a peregrine falcon (shahin), belonging to Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan's hunting party, resting in the sands near Al Ain. A peregrine falcon perches on a carved wooden wakir (block) staked in the sand. The peregrine faces forwards, its head turned to to the right. A falconer's mangalah (cuff) lies in the sand to the right of the wakir. In the background a camel and a large bush are visible in the distance.
