Prvi put u ìvotu sam videla sivog sokola, i to kada sam sa svojim prijateljima bila u ribolovu na reci Beli Drim. On se gnezdi pod F{ajskim mostom u \akovici, tako da smo ga mogli ~uti kako ci~i. Leteo je visoko iznad na{ih glava i sleteo je na stubove mosta iznad mene, i onda je nestao. Iz radoznalosti da saznam vi{e o ovoj vrsti ptice, po~ela sam da istraùjem preko interneta. Otkrila sam da je sivi soko me|u naj~e{}im pticama grabljivicama i da ìve na svim kontinentima osim Antarktika. Oni vole {irok i otvoren prostor, i vole da se razvijaju u blizini obale, gde su obalske ptice uobi~ajene. Ali, mogu se na}i svuda od tundre do pustinje. Sivi soko ~ak ìvi na mostovima i neboderima u ve}im gradovima. Interesantno je da odnos izme|u sivih sokolova i ljudi seè hiljadama godina unazad. Nekada davno su bili veoma plodni i rasprostranjeni {irom sveta, a naj~e{}e su se koristili za lov. Sivi soko je prirodno poslu{an i lako se upu{ta u kontak, pa ~ak i sa ljudima, a ina~e ih je lako ukrotiti. Ljudi su sokolovu spretnost uvideli kao njihovu prednost u lovu. Njegova veli~anstvena brzina i snaga su razlozi zbog kojih je sivi soko bio omiljena ptica me|u sokolarima u srednjem veku. Me|utim, po{to su jaja i mladunci ptica grabljivica prili~no retka i skupa, zato proces gajenja i obuke, jastreba ili sokola, zahteva mnogo vremena, novca i prostora. Zbog toga je gajenje sokolova uglavnom ograni~eno na plemi}ku klasu. @enka je znatno ve}a i sna`nija od mu{karca, samim tim je poèljnija i samo se ona naziva "soko". Mu{ki sivi soko se naziva "Teret", {to zna~i tre}inu. Iako je sokolarstvo izgubilo na popularnosti, i dalje postoje oni koji to i danas praktikuju, naro~ito na Bliskom istoku. Fizi~ki opis Postoji 19 regionalnih varijanti (podvrsta) sivog sokola na svetu. Oni se znatno razlikuju u veli~ini i boji. Kao i svi sokolovi, sivi imaju duga i {iljata krila, i tanak, kratak rep. U Severnoj Americi su otprilike veli~ine vrana, mu`jaci su duìne izme|u 36 i 49 cm, a ènke od 45 do 58 cm. Raspon krila se kre}e od 91 do 112 cm. Oni su u proseku teìne oko 900 grama. Kao i ve}ina ptica grabljivica, ènke sivog sokola su ne{to ve}e od mu`jaka. Oni su obi~no 15-20% ve}e i 40-50% teè od mu`jaka. Sivi sokolovi imaju {kriljasta plavo-siva krila, crne trake na le|ima i bledi trbu{ni deo. Imaju belo lice sa crnom trakom na svakom obrazu, i velike tamne o~i. Njihov ìvotni vek je 15 godina, a neki mogu da ìve i do 20. Majstori lova Sivi sokolovi su grabljivice - {to zna~i da su ptice koje love i ubijaju za hranu. Oni su veoma dobro prilago|eni za lov zato {to imaju jak, o{tar i savijen kljun za kidanje mesa; imaju velike i o{tre o~i za uo~avanje plena na velikoj udaljenosti; a poseduju i o{tre, sna`ne kandè (zvane "talon") za hvatanje i ~erupanje njihovog plena. Fascinantne ~injenice •Sivi soko je zabeleèn kao najbrà ptica, postiè horizontalnu krstare}u brzinu od 105-110 km/h. Sivi soko je jedna od najbrìh ptica grabljivica, sa brzinom od 440 km/h u naletu. • Sivi sokolovi imaju izuzetno o{tar vid. Oni mogu da vide male predmete iz velike daljine, i precizno lete pri velikim brzinama kako bi uhvatile plen. Sivi sokolovi love isklju~ivo ptice, koje ~ine 77 do 99% plena ove grabljivice. • Par sivog sokola je zajedno do kraja ìvota, obi~no postavljaju doma}instva visoko u liticama. Gnezdo sivog sokola se zove "{kripac", a mladunci se zovu golu`dravci. Jedu neverovatnu koli~inu hrane, i za {est dana dupliraju svoju teìnu, a nakon tri nedelje su deset puta teì od svoje teìne na ro|enju. • Zbog svoje fantasti~ne okretnosti i mogu}nosti da brzo lete, sivi sokolovi su omiljeni izbor sokolara. Sokolari krote, i treniraju sive sokolove da love druge ptice.
While we were fishing with my friends on the river Drini i bardhë (White Drin) for the first time in my life I saw Peregrine Falcon. Apparently, it was nesting under a bridge (Fshejtë bridge - Djakovica), and we heard it screeching. It flew high above our heads and landed in the bridge's rafters above me. Then it was gone. From curiosity to know more about this kind of bird I started researching over the net. I found that Peregrine falcons are among the world's most common birds of prey and live on all continents except Antarctica. They prefer wide-open spaces, and thrive near coasts where shorebirds are common, but they can be found everywhere from tundra to deserts. Peregrines are even known to live on bridges and skyscrapers in major cities. An interesting fact is that the relationship between Peregrine Falcons and humans goes back thousands of years. Once highly prolific and widespread throughout the world, Peregrine Falcons were commonly used in the practice of Falconry. Peregrines are naturally docile and easily lent themselves to taming by humans who saw the Falcon's hunting prowess as an asset in hunting for food. The Peregrine's magnificent speed and power also made it the favourite bird for falconers in the Middle Ages. However as eggs and chicks of birds of prey were quite rare and expensive, and because the process of raising and training a hawk or falcon requires a great deal of time, money, and space, it was largely restricted to the noble classes. The female, which is slightly larger and more powerful than the male, was preferred, and only she is given the title of "falcon". A male Peregrine is referred to as a "tiercel" meaning third. Although falconry has fallen out of favour, there are still those who practice it today especially in the Middle East. Physical Description There are 19 regional variants (subspecies) of peregrine falcon worldwide. They vary considerably in size and colour. Like all falcons, peregrine falcons have long, tapered wings and a slim, short tail. In North America they are roughly crow sized, ranging in length from between 36 and 49 cm in males and 45 to 58 cm in females. Wingspan varies from 91 to 112 cm. They weigh an average of 907 g. Like most birds of prey, female peregrine falcons are slightly larger than males. They are typically 15-20% larger and 40-50% heavier than males. Peregrine falcons have slate and blue-gray wings, black bars on their backs and pale underbellies. They have white faces with a black stripe on each cheek and large, dark eyes. Their lifespan is 15 years some can live as long as 20 years. Masters of the Hunt Peregrine Falcons are raptors - which mean they are birds which hunt and kill for food. They are very well adapted to the hunt, with strong, sharp, curved beaks for tearing flesh, large, keen eyes for viewing prey at great distances, and sharp, powerful claws (called talons) for clutching, and grasping their quarry. Fascinating Facts • The peregrine is the fastest bird on record reaching horizontal cruising speeds of 105-110 kmh. The Peregrine Falcon is one of the fastest birds of prey, swooping down at speeds of up to 440 km/h. • Peregrine falcons have extraordinarily keen vision. They can see small objects from very far away and accurately fly at high speeds to capture them. Peregrine falcons prey almost exclusively on birds, which make up 77 to 99% of prey items. • Pairs of Peregrines mate for life, usually setting up housekeeping high in the cliffs. Peregrine nests are called scrapes, or eyries and baby falcons are called eyasses. They eat an incredible amount of food - in six days, they double their weight, and at three weeks are ten times their size at birth. • Because of their fantastic agility and capability for high speeds, peregrine falcons have been the favourite choice of falconers. Falconers train them to hunt other birds.
