good to see you on!
I am in Huntsville Alabama so not too far. I have been hunting mostly rabbits with my HH's, but I do have squirrels around if you hunt them with your gos!
I aslo have a coopers that I have hunted...
Screaming support group. LOL. Even though I understand your situation is not funny. This thread will be active for awhile.
An imprinted screaming falcon can really get to your nerves.
My...
Thanks guys,
She caught another field bird this morning. Several tries before snatching one in the air. She is an awsome predator.
Making my own observation from flying western coops since 1980...
I have had a few pm's asking about Velci. Thanks for the interest.
I try to hunt Velci everyday. She has been a complete maniac on little birds and flys them with gusto. Kills normally every outing....
I need more spear fishing buddies too!
you do good work too!
I should send you my design and see what you can do with it.
I sold a pair of tigers and one was an lavender albino. Still have huge canebrake and eastern diamond.
Did you get your tegus from Bert Langerdorf? (spelling?)
I have a pair of peruvian RT's for sale from Jim Peters.
Hi Justin,
There are a few people on here from Alabama. I live in Somerville. My harris hawks are molting now. Flying a coopers thru the summer.
I see your a tattoo artist. How long have you been...
ah! another speareo on board. It's another passion of mine and I put my spear fishing pictures on two other spear fishing forums. I will try to post some later on the non falconry stuff. I got...
Huntsville area.
yesterday had some hard long twisting flights at 75 to 100 yards. Very fun to watch. She is now returning to my fist on her own after a long flight and miss. We are starting to click now!
She is fine? Thanks for asking. We have had our moments. Have a little trust issue I am trying to work out. Not sure why she started this. I have never robbed her.
She field hawks with more gusto...
my friends should be thanking me for taking all the blame and saving marriages when I move.;)
Velci had some very good long hard pumping flights today and yesterday. She ended up catching a young...
LOL, My wife says when we moved here to Alabama there were a lot of happy wives that were glad to see me go! :D and there will be some happy ones in Alabama when I move again!:D
Thanks, caught another this morning after a few unsuccessfull attempts. She still needs her weight dropped some. She is acting up. She use to be such a sweetheart on bagged game. Now that she is hard...
yes, I pre-weigh her food and exchange it. Yesterdays kill was 1/2 gone when I got to her. She caught it right over a briar and was hard to get to. She should get better with more kills.
Like a big...
Hey Scott,
Even though I am way down here in Alabama. I have family in Eugene, Roseburg, Bend and Coos bay. I Have had lots of good times there crabbing and playing in the dunes. If you ever meet...
It's like a male HH on a Jack rabbit. I field hawked today and jumped a couple of bunnies. All you could see was the grass parting as the rabbits ran. She flew two, but her inexperience showed and...
I should of just gone to church with the wife and kids.
This morning I got typical heavy cooper behavior. Things that she had been totally manned to are about to eat her now:eek:. Like on coming...
Hopefully we can do something this morning. Yesterday she flew at wild starlings but would not give a hard chase. Even at good slips. I think maybe a bit high yet and that's ok for now. She still...
I just use standard anklets without any grommets. Just a smaller hole for the jesses.
I think he should give one to everybody with free vet care.
We call her Velci, Because my Daughter thought she reminded her of a Velociraptor, so she just kind of inherited Velci. Kind of like Velci-raptor. Next pictures will be hunting pictures. Hopefully...
I learned how to break them down like my wife does me with a long leash on each leg.
Hey will be hunting real soon. Should be smacking starlings this weekend. Come over I need a driver and I will...
