Hi everyone.

Just like to post a few pics of my Crow and Gull team. I will start another thread regarding the hunting adventures.

3/4 Peregrine/Saker Falcon. She flies at 1lb 13.5oz. She has a beak injury at the moment, so wont fly again for another 2 or 3 months. Has had 11 crows and 1 gull since early November.

Beautiful birds. I would be intersted to hear more details about the setups on the crow flights. From the numbers it seems the birds really know their business.
