Alright thanks!!!! I've already tried making hoods (Anglo Indian and some Khan style) but they don't turn out so well. I bought a hood from davidsons falconry (Dutch style) and I'm hoping to get some squirrel chaps too. I'm also saving up for the construction of my mews (which is a lot!!!) I'm learning how to make jesses and how to make braided leashes. I'm also trying to make a trap (bal tratri?) out of some wire, a bike wheel and plastic things. Oh, and while I'm at it I have a book called Falconry and Hawking coming in the mail tomorrow. I'm now almost set on books because I got lots of falconry and raptor books for Christmas. Basically all I need is gear. But I do need to save up for all the management costs. Then again I forgot you have to pay for licences and extra fees. And the apprentice course at west coast falconry will run me a couple hundred dollars. Oh and while I'm at it I should get a cup of coffee for my mom.
