Mike is in the Albuquerque area and was nice enough to take me to a couple of his hawking fields this last rabbit meet so my Harris Hawk could catch a jack. Mikes tiercel HH caught 2 {cottontails}of the 6 rabbits that were caught. Here's a picture of one of the cottontails he caught.

Glad you are on the board had a blast flying with you and your FHH. Thanks for putting me on that water park field where I finally nailed a ct with Siing that windy tuesday.

Wed On my way back home I stopped at that Soncy Field, Siing got 4 cts and 2 assists with sharon's bird. It made my Ammarillo meet.

Most memorable moments were flying our birds in cast though. I was not sure if my guy would behave in cast.
