  • Just discovered your channel, like your easy style and non condescending way you impart your knowledge, your passion for falconry shines through. Love it👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
  • Brilliant, he did seem to be more interested in the black pot, passed by the other a couple of times. I could see the distant memory, nice to see that . I fly mine 7 days a week rain or shine, we go hunting he loves it I love it , he is as fit as can be, he wears me out. great video cheers for sharing

    He only knocked one brown over correct? I think he remembered but he wanted to confirm. He couldnt be sure that it was going to be the same as it was years ago. Watching your hawk gave me the impression actually that their short-term memory isn't the best. Long-term memory though, I have a feeling it was on point.

    The way Nigel keeps his head from bobbing as his human moves his hand a bit haha
  • I fly my Harris just for the enjoyment, but for that few minutes she needs an hour or more manning etc. Still worth it. She will kill however. But on discussing this with a lot of dog owners they've admitted the dog has taken birds and rabbits. So always use the telemetry but also the bell. Wasted two hours once after she'd took a dove.
  • Also on my channel I will prepare a video on this topic, thanks and congratulations for the beautiful videos.
  • Hi, I recently found some common buzzards available in my area and I just want to make sure I have everything down before I bring them in. I have never kept birds of prey before although I have worked with other peoples birds and have volunteered at a center where I cleaned the mews, weighed birds, and prepared foods. I also have experience keeping high maintenance birds such as hornbills. I think I am finally ready to get my first bird of prey. I have a massive shed that is perfectly set up as a mew. There is ample ventilation, correct windows and is big enough that a bird can fly quite well inside. I was wondering how often a buzzard should be flown for exercise and how easy or difficult they are to train. I won’t be flying the bird specifically for hunting, but I do have a hunting license so if it happens to kill something, It will be fine. If you know of any good guides or resources to raising them that would be greatly appreciated.

    Owls and birds of prey are hunters. We have tawnys what are thr most chill birds. But even then, they hsve occassionally gone for ducklings.

    They sound like the Border Collie’s of the BoP world - gorgeous but definitely need a job!
