Douglas library to put on falconry program

The Douglas County Public Library is hosting a program about the history and art of falconry.

It will be March 26 at 2pm with local falconers Mark Moglich and his son, Ryan Moglich, who will bring his peregrine falcon. Three generations of the family are breeders and falconers.

Falconry is the only sport that utilizes a trained wild creature. It requires long hours, constant devotion, skill, and an understanding of how the birds behave. The Moglich family is licensed to train birds and raise a number of different types of birds of prey.

The Douglas County Public Library is located at 1625 Library Lane in Minden.
