Esempi
Some sakers have extremely pale plumage, appearing almost white in flight. Wealthy falconers are prepared to pay a fortune for these attractive birds.
Fort St. Maries had eight cannons, purchased by Lord Baltimore in 1633. Of these, four were rated as sakers and four as the larger demiculverins.
The saker fired solid iron shot, weighing between 1.8 and 2.7 kg (4-6lb). These would not explode on impact, but would bounce along the ground until they crashed into something - or someone.
The larger, dark brown and gray barred Altai Saker falcons are the favorite bird of Arab falconers.
English colonists gave their artillery colorful names, such as falcon, saker , demiculverin, and culverin, to name a few.
