Hello all. My name is JW and I am stationed at Keesler AFB in Biloxi MS. I am looking to gather some information on falconry so I can determine if it's something I would like to do. I would really like to meet up with some people close by and maybe watch a hunt or meet a bird. Please let me know if you are able to help me out. Thanks folks.

Welcome JW i was at keesler back in 95 for Air traffic. Had a blast fishing and thought spanish moss was only seen on scooby doo!!! Did not know that stuff was real.

My wife and I went through the same school in '69. Survived Camille and saw plenty of passage tundra falcons on Dauphin Island in AL

I flew a Harris Hawk when I was in the Air Force, caught a lot of Rabbits at the bomb dump on base.

Howdy!

I'm also planning on looking in to Falconry when I get back to Keesler after this deployment. The closest club I was able to find is about half an hour from base: Mississippi Falconers Association, 10229 RD 308, Pass Christian, MS 39571

Hope it helps!
