Zoren turned around and smiled at Violeta. “Vio, you’re up! Come over and take a look, we’ve got a new batch of young eagles.”

“Eagles?”

Violeta walked over and saw numerous young eagles in the bird cages.

“Where did these come from?”

Jasper replied. “They’re imported legally, sold with proper documentation, for falconry training.”

Violeta suddenly thought of Hayden’s gyrfalcon. “Where’s Hayden’s eagle?”

Zoren said, “It’s in the backyard. Zeus looks splendid, and we got him a new hood.”

Eagles are hooded to cover their eyes, keeping them calm and reducing their aggression. When training, eagles will pounce on any live prey they see, so it’s essential to use a hood or blinders.

Liam said. “We arrived just in time. Luckily we made it. Vio, do you want to pick one?”

“We’re lucky to have caught this new batch of young eagles, or else, they’ll be gone tomorrow. It’s the best time to choose one now. Otherwise, you’ll get to choose the leftovers.”

At that moment, Niall and Hayden came in from the backyard. One of the staff brought a large cage, inside stood a majestic eagle with a mix of pure white and black feathers.

This must be Zeus.

Falconry is a hobby for the wealthy, and Violeta had never tried it before.

Niall approached her. “Vio, pick one.”

Violeta pointed to a brown eagle in the cage. “Is this a golden eagle?

“Yes,”

“Then I’ll take this one.”

She liked the golden eagle the moment she laid her eyes on it.

Its feathers were somewhat ragged, and its head was partially bald, indicating it had fought with other birds and wasn’t one to back down!
