An Afghan man watches over caged fighting partridges as he waits for an oppurtunity for his birds to participate in a pastime called 'kabk' at the Central Park in Kabul. In Afghanistan, an extremely poor country, hundreds of adults and children come from early morning until noon carrying their partridges in decorated cages covered with cloth to find an opponent and wager on the fights.
