Kinch, a hybrid falcon, half Gyrfalcon and half Peregrine falcon, sits perched on his master’s glove on Fairchild Air Force Base, Wash., Nov. 15, 2011. Kinch is just one of the tools the base uses to minimize bird-to-aircraft strikes. Base Safety coordinates its efforts multiple times a week with the airfield manager, civil engineering entomology and the tower (U.S. Air Force photo/Airman 1st Class Taylor Curry)
