“moved his court to Adrianople [Edirne], according to his usual custom. His object was
to threaten Hungary with invasion, while at the same time he was attracted by the op-
portunities offered for hawking and for enjoying a climate more bracing than that of
Constantinople, both of which he regarded as benefi cial to his health. Near Adrianople
a large area of fl ooded country is formed where the rivers converge, abounding in wild
ducks, geese, herons, sea eagles, cranes, hawks, and other birds. To capture these, he
makes use of the assistance of small eagles.” Ogier de Busbecq, Turkish Letters (London:
