Yea and they all call me an old coot too<G>

Good luck with the tiercel.

Yep, I'm still using air.

Do you still have sandgrouse to hawk?

Brad

Hey Cobus how's it going. Are you still flying birds?

Brad

I think it's some sort of South American bird. There was a school teacher and another fellow in Champlain I met while there. Had lunch with them but neither struck me as being falconers. They struck...

Forrest,

The game populations here have changed dramatically in the last 25 yrs. When I first got here it was hun city. I could drive down the road and pick from the coveys I saw. which one to...

Hey Forrest. Sorry this thread got all tangled up, you know falconers<G>

Brad

My wife and I went through the same school in '69. Survived Camille and saw plenty of passage tundra falcons on Dauphin Island in AL

WOW!!!! Lots of neat things happened in the last 25 yrs.

"It will be great that you move to Pierre, we go there all the time."

Then we can go hawking, again.

I got new eyes, cataract...

Nothing new except I'm damned tired of this goo. Still breeding a few birds but I'm trying to get the project closed down since we are retiring soon. Bought some land out at Pierre to build on and...

Hey Forrest.

By your intro I pretty much knew who you were.

Greetings Kitty. When I was a lad I saw a hawk in the backyard. I had my beloved parakeet sitting on my shoulder. I opened the window to get a better look at the hawk. Out flew Junior to be caught...

Back before the Civil War someone in my family thought he had a grand sense of humor. He named my GGgrandfather Americus Columbus Mitchell. That's not too bad. His brother was named Julius Ceasar...

Misty Skye beats Rae Dong Chong by a mile<G> Your right about picking kid's names especially because of what other kids can do with those names. Even grown up kids<G> Congrats on passing your...

Jeff,

I use drier vents as food chutes for my breeders. Do I have a problem? The two falcons I have left will begin to chup at the feeder when I enter the barn especially during the winter. If I...

He's 40 miles from me. Rich is coming here to pick up an very nice pair of breeding peregrines. A gift. If he gets here in time we'll fly the two youngsters I kept.

Brad

That's funny because I kept forgetting all the time. Once I had this little hybrid tiercel who had grounded a wild immature prairie falcon. I took off and asked John to drive to the road. He did his...

Hell No it wouldn't be impossible. There is a falconer in WA who flys longwings and is in a wheel chair. The late John Noble was legally blind, that never stopped him. He couldn't see further than...

I don't get tired of reading this. I do get tired of scratching my head wondering if many of us are either wrong, dont tow the line or are from another planet.

The question I often ask myself is,...

I bet I know where your going Fred<G>

On Saturday night they need some excitement,
Jane gets right and the monkey gets tight,
And their voices unite, in the pale moon light,
And it sounds alright, yeah, it's dynamite,
It's outta...

THA is the best about disseminating information! I'm constantly getting information from them and love it.

Brad

I thought this quote might be appropriate

"Both ancient and modern writers have used the Battle of Thermopylae as an example of the power of a patriotic army of freemen defending native soil."

I'm just sending them some money. If they say I smell too bad or something along those lines I'll probably agree with them and leave it at that.

Brad

I have a friend with some white gyrkins. This is the first year for the pair. They laid, set and hatched all 4 birds. If I were to suggest he donate one to the auction I think our friendship would be...
