Now that I am settled in my job and new home here in Miami, Fl. I am looking to get back in to some flying and hunting.
Any information and contacts locally to where I live would be most welcome in obtaining the correct paperwork for me to obtain birds in Florida.
Thank you.
Hello Chris,
What part of Scotland were your from ? A friends family once owned 75,000 acres of land where they went to fly their falcons at grouse. Their home was in Yorkshire County near Holderness in England. They never lived on the land and only went there to fly their birds. The land the family once owned had the lake named Loch Trool on it. My friend passed away in 1997 at the age of 90. The government took the land when death taxes became due. It is now a forestry park.
