Hi Ken,

Tony.
Sorry Tony the red Python is my Medium size up to would be for hoods up to small Female Peregrine, depending on the style of Hood.Quote:

Needs a matching hood though!
Thank you Mario,, I had a couple of hoods to match that saver. Unfortunately those Designer hides are a crap shoot may never see one like it again. I might be able to get something close but they are never the same.Quote:

For now I just don't know how to thank you!
I've just washed my hawking vests and have them drying on the line, in the hope I can get a decent picture of it in use before the last flight is done.
I'll have more to tell tomorrow, but for now will just thank you for your unbounded generosity.
Best wishes,
Tony.
Your welcome Tony,Quote:

A falconer/artist friend, Ron Digby, visited this morning and I proudly showed him the hood and hood saver you sent. He commented that such craftsmanship would have been unimaginable until quite recent times.
I'll have to wait until next season to show him how practical it is too.
Best wishes,
Tony.
Hello Tony here is the photo of you and your fine dog and falcon and the Python saver on the last day of the season. I have seen Ron's work they are incredible, please thank him for his kind words on my works.Quote:

I've e-mailed you a couple of pictures. One of Ron when he joined me recently for a flight, which as it happened was wonderful. His face always beams after a good flight, and is an inspiration to me.
The other, also an inspiration, is of a recent painting by him. As you say, incredible.
Best wishes,
Tony.
PS I showed Ron the above photo of me, and he made me laugh by commenting that our disappointment at the gulf between how we'd like to look and the reality of how we do look, gets worse as the years go by.
Tony I received just one photo, WOW what a smile he has!!!Looks like he had a great time.Quote:
