New Calendar

I am going to be placing items on the new calendar tab as I have or know of events. I hope to turn this new calendar into a place where falconers in Northern Nevada can put items of interest up. Ill start with an event this weekend, the Nevada Wildlife Commission meeting all weekend at 1100 Valley Rd.

Apprentice update.

My apprentice has his red-tail flying 35 feet on a creance. He is having a blast with his new hawk. Should be really fun to get him hunting. Trying 100 foot creance fly tomorrow.

My apprentice is progressing well.

Well, I am happy to announce that my apprentice’s tiercel red-tail is finally coming 6 feet to the glove. I was really happy to hear when he told me that. Creance work will begin this weekend and we should be making a lot of progress. He jumped at 1054 grams. Should be a great hawk at 1025 or so. I am headed out this weekend every day to hunt my harris. Kit is doing very well and is very anxious.

Red Tail hawk trapping video

I took my apprentice out trapping his first red tail last week. We had a blast and the bird is coming along fine. Check out the video that we shot on my youtube channel.

Doing a lot of presentations lately

I really enjoy talking about the sport of falconry and these amazing birds. Here’s a pic of me giving a presentation to students at Truckee Meadows Community College. (Clearly, they were enthralled 😉

Thanksgiving hawkin….gotta love it!

It was a beautiful day today. Perfect for hawking. Kit and I got out and got a nice jack rabbit. I really do love this time of year. I am working on helping my new apprentice pass his facility inspection on Monday. Headed out to go hawking again tomorrow in a new field that I think will work out nicely. Have a great holiday everyone and happy hawking!!
