Thanks!

It seems a little vague if we need health certificates for birds and dogs when bringing them to the meet. I'm planning on getting HCs for my crew, but I'm a little unclear as to what is necessary. Is...

Does NE even have corn? ;)

Thanks for putting this all together every year. Can’t wait!

Hi Jarrett,

Congrats on passing your test! I'm in CO, around SE Aurora/ Centennial. If you're around this Saturday 8/19, it's the Colorado Hawking Club's annual eyass picnic. Many falconers from...

I was looking at the Non-resident 5-day license online, and it says that it isn't valid for quail, but I don't see an option on there to purchase a license for quail, except for perhaps the NR hunt...

I'm going! I'll be bringing my MHH, Rufio, and a bottle of wine for each day of the week :D

This was only my second NAFA meet, my first was in 2010 when I was pregnant, nauseous, and tired. There was more game in 2010, but I definitely had more fun this year. Because it wasn't over...

I'm looking forward to meeting many of you. The last NAFA meet I attended was 2010, and I was all pregnant. I'm thinking a few of you might be easier to take when I'm 2-3 beers in. toungeout :D

I get an error saying "authentification failed" when I try to login to checkout. The rest of the website works well for me and is easy to navigate.

I guess that's the way to go, although there's still a 6-8 hour in-person conclusion course. I'm being extra whiny about this since I have a new hawk coming soon, and would rather spend that extra...

Colorado just doesn't require it to possess a falconry permit, so it's just one more thing to do before the meet. It's just an inconvenience, but I guess necessary to hawk at the meet.

Ugh. That's really annoying, since KS made an exception last time.

Okay, so I was looking at the meet info, and it says that anyone hunting needs proof of hunter education. In Colorado, we don't need to take a hunter Ed course for falconry. I remember at the 2010...

I'm pretty excited for this! Hotel reservation made. I haven't been to a NAFA meet since 2010.

I think mine came on Friday the 17th. I don't check my mail everyday, but it was on top of the pile when I picked it up on the 17th. I'm a real life Nancy Drew. :D

I guess I should also add that...

What???!!! That place was definitely not worth the $80+ a night. I went to bed one night, and the sheets they put on my bed had a faded bloodstain on it. Really? for $80 a night, could they not...

My bird caught a snake... how many of those were taken? :D

Thank you all for your generosity! It will be much appreciated when we can get this kestrel going after birds instead of jumping around on the ground catching bugs! :)

Thanks Ev, anything helps!

Isaac, you are a lifesaver (or not, depends how you look at it:D )

When are you getting there?

Not sure if I put this in the right place, but since it has "NAFA" in the title...

A friend of mine is just getting a Kestrel started, and while she goes hawking all the time, she can't get the...

I tried to PM Axel, but he never responded... Anyway, is this "Apprentice License" for those of us whose state doesn't require for us to take a hunter's safety course? I'm not an apprentice, but I...

I talked to you on the phone a couple of years ago, and you told me your name was Hannah.

Man, this must be what it feels like to be the guy in the bar that gets a six digit phone number from a...

Bummer. This means I need a hunter's safety course. In Colorado, you don't need one if you only have a falconry license. grrr.
