This makes me laugh every time I take her down from the T-perch. Couple of circles in flight then on the car it is.

How's the bird "noise leve"? Did being hacked make it act more like a wild trapped bird?

Other than initial "resentment" screams the first week of manning I have not heard a sound out of her in the mews or the field. I don't know if she is as tame as other Harris Hawks, because I have no frame of reference. She returns to the T-perch without tidbitting, and I use an automatic pet feeder (got the idea here) to deliver her food.
