Awesome yarak pic Charles. Curious, what was trap weight and what is hunting weight if you don't mind? How's the hooding?
Thanks.. she was trapped at 354.. were flying at 340..but will need to come down a bit cause she's discovered her freedom and has become a little slow to the fist and the lure.
Beautiful falcons. Are they flown in falconry?
Colorado used to have a last eyass take date as July 15. That really sucked. I took an eyass at a couple days old as I had no other option. But it worked out great so I guess it really didn't suck as I would have waited till it was a brancher. But she was one of my best and most fun bird ever. You are going to have fun.Quote:

Here's a good sign I seen yesterday. A Frog. The stinkin dirt farmers and utility farmers haven't quit sprayed enough shit yet to kill them all.
Nice video Ricco. I see now how different the areas where we would hunt them are. Most places I see coots have cattails or emergent vegetation higher than my head ringing a wetland.Quote:

Hah. couldn't help myself..

Ross Dirks' pointer (or two) and maybe Tom's dog honoring a point. As the shutter clicked (yeah, back in the day) the bird flushed. Ross can probably ID his dog(s) for us.
