Adult female peregrine falcon in Greenland feeding her young.
While biologists search for falcons, Greenlanders collect nestling gulls from a coastal cliff with a boat hook for a supper of boiled seagull - Arctic chicken.
Crazy-legs was one of the first hybrid falcons produced from artificial insemination. She was half gyrfalcon and half peregrine. The greater prairie chicken she caught earlier and falconry bag are at her feet.
