Awesome all that work paying off now!
Out early today our first slip was a gimmie she nailed it before it could even think about flying. The next slip was at a starling walking around a concrete pillar I had stopped the car and usually...
I want to reverse the moult and fly in the summer.

Went out bright and early this mourning with Minny, we found her first starling feeding in a grassy field, she caught it in 5 feet from where the flight started. The next slip was another starling...
Thanks
She has been a blast, if you like small bird hawking go for it and the rewards will be worth it. She has been the best bird I have ever flown, I am hooked on micro hawking.
Any updates?
Minnie and I went out this mourning and had 8 flights at starlings, she took 7 of the 8 birds I slipped her at, they all were nice flights considering they were out the window, but it was still fun....
Thanks if you ever get the chance try it I promise you will like it.

Doves have loose plummage so its hard for hawks to hold them they mostly end up with feet full of feathers and the dove hauling butt away.
3 or 4 starling baggies would go a long way with her right now
I am seeing alot of them here also it wont be long.
Yesterday I was pressed for time but managed to get out for a quick 30 minute hunt we took a sparrow in a short flight as it tried to make it...
