IHT Article 2: In Nepal, Gliding With A Feathered Guide

http://travel.nytimes.com/2011/11/06/travel/gliding-in-nepal-with-a-feathered-guide.html?ref=travel

This article is about a new adventure sport that combines falconry and paragliding. Basically, the person paraglides accompanied with a trained falcon and follows them. It is exciting for both thrill-seekers and bird enthusiasts. It adds a little something extra to paragliding, and some people wouldn't even want to paraglide if the trained bird wasn't with them.
