Conor, I am 50 and the climb up the tree proved that to be true. Just could not resist the pic. Conor I found about 15 nests within 8 miles of the house. Found two that were 200 yards apart that are actively nesting. Looks like a good nesting year around here for raptors.

well it was a nice 78-80 degree day, not bad. we are not yet getting really hot weather here. so cal has fairly decent weather. i can not complain too much. i know that it got cold this week up there in idaho and wyoming, but spring is here.

Hi Conor, no I am not flying right now. I just got my license reinstated after having been out of the country in Samoa for several years. I am just glad to get it back. When I manage to get a flying bird I will let you know. So what are you flying right now (red tail?)

Hey Conor, she is beautiful! Where did you find such an awesome bird? You have done well and I am sure she is a great rabbit hunter.

Conor,

That really is a beautiful bird your flying,and I have to admit you have done better this year with you redtail than I have done with mine.

And I do have a pickup to get me where I need to hunt.

Hey Preacher boy, yeah I can say the same, I never had that good of a year with a red tail. We are proud of you Conor. Looking forward to seeing you even do better.
