Excellent,excellent video and documentation. This is a great example of how to make a video. It was all about the subject and not the person. Most people think they have to be in the video and then spend too much time talking. This is a professionally done video. People who make videos, watch this one and learn.

Thanks for a great video. It's nice to see the whole process in sequence, though I'm sure it was a chore to film and edit all of it. Also really liked your mews. Looks well designed. Does your state require inspections or specific dimensions? Also, do you keep your hawk or release and trap a new passage in the autumn?
@TheDesertSportsman
Ай бұрын
Thank you for the kind comment! Yes our state (Arizona) does inspect the mews when you first build it. Though there are no specific size requirements, they will not approve one that is not appropriately sized. So far I have released each year and started over. Just waiting for the "right" one to keep multiple seasons. Plus I am still fairly new to this (4 full seasons under my belt) so I like the idea of learning from training different personalities each year. Thanks again for the comment and for watching!

@@TheDesertSportsman I spent a month with a falcon who did w exactly what I commented and only grudgingly mounted the glove after that time. ( I was feeding a maintenance ration). I then got a peregrine tiercel and the second day he was jumping to the glove and free flying in 10 days. I have never had to restrict his diet to any extent. I have learned to be skeptical of many videos that I watch though I am only a novice in real terms.

Okay question… when practicing falconry maybe not get it right 100% of the time but when you actually become experienced can you make a bird loyal 100% of the time? Or do some birds just have more free spirit than others and decide to never come back to your palm eventually ? Just a question !

One thing to keep in mind is that birds of prey are not social creatures so they will never get an emotional attachment to you. With that being said, each raptor has it's own personality and some seem better suited for the sport than others. I have had red tails that seemed to never get it so I returned them to the wild and I gave had some that picked up on it right away and almost seemed to "enjoy" my presence. Hope this answers your question. Thanks for watching!

Yes during initial training she is fed raw chicken to keep a consistent calorie intake. Once she is hunting she is fed from what she catches, so mostly rabbits. She is always given vitamin supplements specifically for birds of prey.
