Thanks for the welcome. I typically would bow hunt every weekend between October 15th and January 18th, a few years ago the city put nature trails along my property and significantly decreased the white tail traffic during hunting hours. The last couple seasons I haven't even put up a stand. That left me with pheasant hunting and a lot of downtime during the fall and winter. We have plenty of squirrels and rabbits around and falconry looks like a great way to spend the hunting and off seasons.
