General Falconry Things

Catch compilation from last season

Good article that gives a nod to how falconers were integral in the Peregrine Falcons recovery. Falconers were a big contributor to the captive bred population and many released birds with no compensation.

Last month of my season. (Warning, bunny screams)

Disclaimer: video shows hawks catching rabbits and rabbits scream when that happens. A lot of people find this very off putting.

Flying a cast of 2 male 1 female harris hawks. Added the juvenile male this season and he is coming into his own but the older male doesn't like him :(

All three of them helped catch this rabbit

Beautiful flight off the fist, easy transfer off. This bird is turning out great!

Older bird sharing a rabbit with the new bird.

Wife slightly impulse bought a harris hawk and we're spending this weekend getting the other birds used to him so we can all fly together.

All the birds have been moved indoors so we're weathering a bit today.

Pretty decent news video, Jim did a good job.

Sunning off the wet

Video with my birds this last season

She wouldn't stop chasing them and finally got one, Gyr / Peregrine hybrid.

better than a stone in a bush?
