Falconry is the ancient tradition and discipline of working with raptors as hunting partners. Rebecca became an apprentice falconer in 1994 and has  counted her years in falconry seasons and falconry teams ever since. The licensing, focus, and lifestyle are all arduous. So, falconry shapes one’s life. The love of free-flying raptors and the landscape has influenced her writing, art, friendships and choice of professions. It has been a choice worth every miraculous, inspiring and heartbreaking  moment.
