One partner swings a pigeon in a circle, the other partner swings a falcon. The falcon tries to synchronize her circles to contact the pigeon. When successful the children switch roles. Once the basic activity is mastered, and given enough room, have the children move around the activity area while playing. Caution them to avoid contact.
Falcons are birds of prey.
There are 38 species of hawks in the falcon family. Some species are trained to hunt with humans. Falconry is an ancient skill once practiced by kings. Falcons are famous for their swooping dives to catch prey. Peregrine falcons have been introduced and now live in many cities.
