What a superb book....an outstanding story of one of the grandest creatures of nature, written with rare knowledge and understanding of the subject. It combines keen observation with a remarkable intimate relationship, so seldom found in studies of wild creatures. It should become a "classic."

"A glad adventure into the fierce free world behind those golden eyes. Mr. Durden has found a way to hand us the friendship of a proud creature, and that's a gift rarely given..."

Gifts of an Eagle - The Film

Gifts of an Eagle the film is a a documentary made by Kent from original footage from the 1950's through the 1970's. Narrated by Kent, the film is a 75 minute story that will captivate audiences of all ages.

This film maintains the diy and folksy feel that was ever present with The Durdens. Kent was a natural story teller and could make any little incident an amusing and entertaining tale. Here he is narrating a film that he took on tour and narrated live for many years when he was a lecturer for The Audubon Society.

Gifts of an Eagle is an old-fashioned feel good nature story that is engaging, dramatic, humorous and very touching.

DVD is now available for the first time! It includes a couple extra features, including a fun short educational film made by Kent in the 70's about the life of a wildlife photographer. Available from the links above or on Etsy.
