I am new to falconry and would like ANY information on group meetings and/or any way to get involved with other apprentices or falconers in my general area of Central, N.J. I recently had the pleasure to work with a baby Red Tailed Hawk who fell from his nest with a leg injury. Knowing the local animal control officer well, I've helped him with foxes, racoons, dogs, other small animals, and a couple of horses.
I currently own 7 retired standardbreds, 5 dogs, 4 small birds. All of our birds, with the exception of the Conure, were found on our farm and raised from the size of a silver dollar. Although the Hawk had to be returned, the time that I had spent with him really fueled my desire to learn and experience more in falconry. Anyone willing to help me get more involved in the sport, please contact me. I am in my 40's (though mentally in my 20's) and still love to seek new hobbies and friends , inevitably bringing me here to your forum.
