It is a wild beast who has found a home. Normally, this bird can't be found in Romania and on it's own I don't think it would have survived because it has only 4 months. But it got lucky. A breeder of prey birds took the hawk and they became friends. Now this bird has a family. The bird is free to fly anywhere, but she always come back to his friend. She is a little afraid of people, but with a little patience (and with some meat), comes very close to humans.
