The annual Golden Eagle Festival in Bayan-Ölgii Province, Mongolia is a recognition of the Kazakh practice of hunting with eagles and an attempt to foster these skills into the future.

But it is more than that: it is a celebration of the rich cultural traditions of the between 100- and 200-thousand ethnic Kazakhs who live here in Western Mongolia.

Bayan Nuri

Long-tailed Parakeet, Bayan, Nuri, Psittacula longicauda

This is the most widespread species of parrots in Peninsular Malaysia. Usually can be found in lowland rainforest and oil palm plantations where it is consider pest because it feed on the fruits. Give a loud high pitched screetch that attract attention during flight, with a blunt head silhouette and a long pointed tail.

Bunyi yang bising di suatu pagi membolehkan saya mengesan burung ini bertenggek di dahan pokok di kawasan pinggir hutan. Ia membiarkan saya melepaskan beberapa tembakan sebelum terbang pergi, juga dengan bunyi yang bising. Saya bernasib baik kerana shot ini sahaja yang menjadi, malah subjek utama hampir terkeluar frame.

Female golden eagles weigh between 3 and 7 kg (6.6 – 15.4 lbs) and have wingspans of 1.8 – 2.3 m (5’9″ – 7’5″); their Kazakh handlers are not particularly tall! There is a forked wood perch attached to the saddle to help support the bird while they are riding.

The Kazakh eagle hunters of Western Mongolia usually choose female eagles because they are much larger and therefore able to catch heavier animals.The communion between the eagles and their handlers is wonderful to watch.

Managing her Eagle 0181 by Ursula in Aus

She’s not the first, and she’s not the only one, but she is still a rarity these days: a female Kazakh eagle hunter.

Nurguli is a quiet, solemn girl. She did her best to ignore the small group of photographers following her around – a task made easier for her by the lack of a shared language. She lit up, however, when she was handling her bird.
