Museum of Berkutchi Isabekovs.

Berkutchi in Kazakhstan.

“Early in the morning, a little dawn, the berkutchi goes to the mountains.
On the shoulder of his wide golden eagle stands an obedient one
A faithful friend and a reliable horse - what else do you need on a campaign
To the fox, to the red beast, to its stone holes!"

Anuar Zholymbetov.
