London, July 31 : American actor Leonardo DiCaprio has found a new hobby, which involves watching birds of the feathered kind.

DiCaprio, 34, spent more than an hour watching peregrine falcons at London’s Tate Modern this week, reports the Sun.

After gazing through binoculars at the birds of prey, he chatted with volunteers at the RSPB viewing site about them.

The actor is so taken with the majestic creatures, that he has signed a petition to help protect them. (ANI)
