English: SPANGDAHLEM AIR BASE, Germany – A hunting falcon traps and kills a large bird near the flight line here July 31. Roland Leu, 52nd Fighter Wing falconer, is the wing’s only falconer and he uses his four falcons to hunt birds and rodents throughout the year. The falconer keeps rodent and bird populations clear of aircraft and helps reduce the amount of damage and cost of repairs done to aircraft.
