More Training

I have not been to happy with the free flying. Response to the fist was not there and he wouldn't come back down to the glove. He would fly to the lure like a rocket.  After talking to a number of Master Falconers ( Thanks guys) i decided to put into practice a course of action that i had decided upon. We decided to spend more time on the creance and work on flying to the fist. His weight is at 830grams and i have been feeding him 40-50grams of Quail a day. I really wish i had trapped this hawk in October he would have saved allot of time and energy.

Anyway the results are.



We will try free flying him again over the weekend. Thanks to my step daughter , Shelby and her friend Anna for acting as camera (wo)men
