John drew a tag for Arizona to go trap a Harris Hawk!! I can’t wait to go. It should be a blast! I am headed out to hawk today! Should be a beautiful day for it.

Winnemucca

Well, John and I had a blast on Saturday hawking with some falconers in Winnemucca. We met Doug and his two Harris Hawks and his friend Jim. Even though it was cold, windy as hell and John’s bird shit in my tennis shoe, we had fun. We all came up empty handed but the wind was terrible. Pics and a video will be posted soon. We are off to visit another falconer and her apprentice on Saturday.

My bird is crazy

Ok, Today my hawk nearly killed herself while trying to get a squirrel under some rocks. Full stoop right into the rocks!! Crazy bird. Then a few minutes later she went after a marmit. For those of you who dont know what a marmit is, imagine a 12lb beaver or woodchuck. Mean little bastards.
