Sorry about not attaching my name to my last post. I should reveal that I have a PhD in experimental psychology and have taught the principles of learning to well over a 1000 students. Using the...

Slight correction to the previous post. A clicker is a conditioned stimulus (CS) that takes on the properties of a secondary reinforcer thru associative learning. Using CR will confuse the reader...

I find the easiest way to attract a prairie falcon in Kansas is to fly a tiercel peregrine. Works all the time. And if you want a red-tailed hawk, just wait for your tiercel peregrine to catch a...

In my experience, training one's dog to stay with the falcon has proven to be a worth while tactic to protect a falconry bird on it's kill. I had a female gyr x peregrine hybrid that became more...

Well I put a wad of raffle tickets in, but didn't win. The winner had sympathy for my loss, tho. So he agreed to trade it for another hood. It's going in my collection. Now if it would fit a tiercel...

Ok, that's the perfect hood! Yes, I am a TCU graduate. Go Frogs!

Here are links to research by Dr. Marzluff of University if Washington. He studies long-term face recognition in Crows. (the so-called friend or foe study done in downtown Seattle) It seems to have...

Having a background in experimental psychology, Pitcher's use of terms/theory is not commonly associated with animal learning is interesting, but at this point only is only conjecture. For example,...
