Falconry - Hunting wild quarry with trained birds-of-prey. My channel is about giving you a preview into the raptors elusive world. Falconry is not a hobby but a way of life that involves continuous learning, problem solving, hard work and dedication; one which though deeply satisfying is also highly demanding. My aim is to allow people to witness birds-of-prey doing what they do naturally in the wild.
I'm out for hours most days in the winter with a video camera trying to get footage showing a snippet of their elusive lives, which normally involves being tired, soaking wet and freezing cold. Please consider supporting us on Patreon.
I run a small business that offers clients private experience days which subsidises my passion for falconry. Please take a look at my website: www.hawkinsfalconry.co.uk
Thanks very much

I have been looking so much into getting myself a Harris hawk. Gaining as much knowledge as possible. I just say this is the best video I have seen in regards to Harris hawks 👍🏻 can I ask who the breeder of your bird was please.
Very cool eagles
You thought the dense foliage was your ally? WHAM!!! Goshawk!!!
Better than a F 35
We have a pair near us, I hope its a pair. Took film of one in 97 and captured the never to be forgotten sound. Last year 2023 took film (only Sony camera) of fairly huge hawks near us in summer and autumn. This spring heard the same sound and actually had one displayng right behind us wings outstretched staring ahead!
Can you tell me bonelli female is a good hunter? Relative to male? I am gonna train female age is 13months…i am waiting your reply…please replaying me… when tou see my comment… My hard work should not be wasted on this female cause of if female is not a good hunter…
And i am telling she was also train on the whistling calling…
How is the boy doing are you still hunting him as you haven’t posted for awhile. Regards William
To me these birds are an eagle version of a goshawk. A cross between one would be lethal, but to be fair both species are so awesome I doubt a cross would make them any better such are the high standards of both birds
What an absolute UNIT!!!
Gutes Video wieder super Aufnahmen und top mit Hans Zimmer 😊
Schönes Tier, eins der besten Videos 👍
❤love
Godd
Does this method work with other wild fowl such as duck or pigeon?
Okay the dark knight rises !!!
Mint...proper harris hawking land that ....very good to watch
Just got my first goldi nice 2023 untucked female gota say I’m little nervous the thort the journey lol
astonishing photography.... and what amazing hunters (hawks and dogs)!!! haven't seen many goshawks in videos
My favourite bird of prey
What beautiful fantastic birds🦅🦅
Brilliant but muted the Music
Loved this video. I feel exactly the same when I go trecking... I love all the different plants and insects you show, but I miss others like birds, for example, which I love and which so present in the forest, don't you think?
Greetings from Turkey, an excellent hunt, I congratulate you, as if it were a part of my dreams, the falcon, the hunter and the German pointer are a perfect team.
Wow. What an educational video with words not being spoken. It is a better way to teach by visually showing the student. I learned how to raise an eagle and to teach him how to hunt all in under an hour. Thanks, buddy. Now I don't have to pay for those lessons. I'm on my way to go purchase a gold eagle egg now
Fantastic filming! What a brilliant idea to be in the sky with your bird. Amazing. Thank you.
What an excellent video. About what weight does this male fly at?
👏👏👍❤
Merci pour cette vidéo d'une niché de autour des palombes juvénile. J'ai un bon souvenir aussi dans un bois de belgique 🤩😉
😮 zut alors j'ai eu une buse de Harris sur ma main gauche avec un fauconnier mais la vpus etre super fort rn altitudes en vol. Bravo mes félicitons et merci pour cette vidéo il faut le faire sa donne de reve. Un bonjours de la belgique
C'était un régal de voire ce Autour des palombes avec un chien de chasse avec sa on n'a plus besoin de fusil c'est une prédation naturelle sur les petit gibier. Merci le fauconnier pour partagé sa. 😉 un bonjour de la Belgique
Anyone doing falconry in Southern Idaho?
Good video clips, but egad! What's with the dramatic sound effects? I'd rather hear the commands, flush and even some explanation of how you set up the flush over beating drums and a loud orchestra.
btw...the 'intro' is incredible! Dave Sharpe has talked about how a well-trained and well-conditioned Harris's is an incredible hawk, and you certainly show this here! I get the impression that Harris's are not only good 'performers', but seem to have tremendous intelligence, well beyond what one expects of 'instinct', and also look to be real "partners" with falconer, and other "team members". It must be a real pleasure to work (and play?) with your hawk?
Hello my friend, can you tell me about this bird’s behavior and characteristics? Is it really a punishment whose instinct controls it, and is it considered an unfaithful bird? In your opinion, which is better in terms of loyalty, is the Imperial Eagle or Bonelli'?
The Babys sound like golden babies, the vocal s of Parents are new to me , and make me 🤔 GoshawkEagle 😂 , by Candle light like our ancestors Austringers 😊 Nice Work Master Austringer! ( Falconer ?)
Master Austringer ! Hat off , nice show i see now why in German they are called GoshawkEagle ; 😊 Feather and Fur - soar or fly low - Forest or Field . Versatile like your Pointers .
What a truly amazing video i didnt realise the Bonelli's Eagle was a formidable hunter
Silly question would gos catch a wood cock
Coolest video i ever seen on YT for the 1st time about bonelli's eagle excellent job
❤subha Allah great beautiful
Cracking video what a beauty
Dude, you do falconry to the maximum. Love your shit!!!
this is the best video I've seen regarding falconry the flying and catches are amazing. also the bird is so well behaved. I fly an harris I'd love a bonellis after watching this
Excellent footage !!!
Tandem parahawking, i am interested
I am also falconer i am hunting with gooshawk but I enjoy your video good job.
That is life great job
😢wow
Where you bin Nige - that eagle is fitter than a lot of peoples falcons 😂
Just been enjoying my time in the field with the birds. No camera, no distractions just the dog, birds and me 👍 Might start filming again next season…
@@hawkinsfalconry To be fair that’s the way it should be….Cameras add a whole other level of distraction.
Hello, great video and work, is the goshawk bred by parents or imprinted?
Hi, All my birds are Parent reared thanks
With this type of training, the goshawk does not end up becoming independent from the falconer with the risk of loss and that he realizes that he no longer depends on us. all the best
@@bulhar1973 Just a question of time spent in the field. Quite easy to do if you’re out in the field all the time and analyse their behaviour and more importantly concentrate on obedience once per week to keep them from becoming too independent. Good land and glove flying for a couple of years first to let them know what the human is for and they will actively follow-on no problem at all. We specialised in catching pigeons on a regular basis following-on in woodland. Absolutely spectacular flights and their fitness is as if wild. Essentially I’m flying a wild bird then taking him home for a safe news with a full crop everyday. To witness a trained bird that’s given the opportunity to live a life as close to wild and have the time to fly most days sure is a huge privilege. Thanks
