Did you see them fly and hunting? That's very impressive. Near Strassbourg is a famous event/location/show.

Nah, pics were posted by a guy I know who did get to see them in action. The last one is estimated to be 4ft from beak to tail and has a wing span on nearly 10ft

Superb!

I've been lucky enough to do falconry a couple of times, and there really is something uniquely awesome and terrifying about having a bird of prey perched on your arm and eyeballing you.
