  1. Hi carl got into it when i saw harris hawks hunt in north devon and have been hooked since.Bought my first male harris 7 years ago and a female six years ago and hunted the in a caste ever since never looked back,i,ve also hunted a female redtail on hares rabbits and squirrels for the last 3 seasons she,s a bit unpredictable and downrite scary but theres never a dull moment.
  2. Saw these pups in the flesh with the dam the other day and i have to say they are a credit to their owner and breeder,totally awesome the real deal anyone buying and working these dogs will not be disappointed.As the ad says historically correct and bred to work these dogs will handle anything thrown at them and more.11/10
  3. Just a few pics of my female Redtail Honey going well 4 rabbits in the first week off the creance.Hopefully its the start of bigger things to come.Happy hunting all and good luck for the coming season.
  4. Be careful when buying stuff especially swivels make sure its either a good quality stainless steel D ring type or a ball bearing swivel type as there are quite a few ebay sellers who knowingly sell swivels which are not for the purposes of falconry and not up to the job but they label them as such and sell them anyway try Mikes Falconry if buying on ebay he,s one of the good guys and he doesn,t sell rubbish or stuff thats not up to the job. Happy hawking tho we,ve all had to start somewhere.
  5. i know someone who was hit in the face last weekend probably by the same bird Been past this site for twenty years with all the family and its been active and never been bothered maybe its a new pair of birds nesting there and this ones a lot more aggressive than the old female.
  6. Crazy or what,me and my 17 year old son were walking along through our local wood minding our own business when he turns to me and asks am i taking the piss or what.To which i reply I dont have a clue what your on about.You clouted me around the head he says at which time we both look pretty bemused as we see a female Tawny Owl legging it about twenty metres away in front of us.Only turns out she smacked him right across the back of the head and neck with both feet raking him in half a dozen places with cuts about an inch and a half long before buggering off and landing in a tree about 60 metr
  7. Sad day to see Mr Nuttals old stuff isn,t so easy to get hold of anymore i,ve had the old lines for nearly twenty five years and am now down to my last dog who,s twelve and still game as hell,like all the old lines he virtually entered himself at eight months old on foxes like the other five generations i,ve had of his line and regardless of depth,quarry or time underground i havent seen one back down as yet but as some of you have said the newer lines are rather small and not as robust as they used to be.Personally i,ll be sorry to see my last dog go and life wont be the same without him or o
  8. Here.s a pic of me an my mate jamie after a successful day out .I,m the ugly one in the combats on the right so if you see me up the falconry fair then stop me and say hello i dont bite honest but i cant vouch for the wife.Sorry bout the pic but i,ve messed it up again just right click and copy and paste it and you,ll see my ugly mug in all its glory.

    Best looking mews and aviary i,ve seen mate if i get a garden big enough thats the set up i,ll be looking to build only for three birds.
  10. Hi guys how many women out there are nutty about bunny bashing with raptors or had their heart stolen by a mild mannered Harris Hawk.My missis has been hooked since the day she clapped eyes on our male harris Gizmo five years ago and damned if the little shit wont fly for anyone else now.Come rain or shine,mud or dry fields she cant deny him anything so she braves it all to take him hunting.
  11. Christ whats the middle one a rat.If my harrises caught the likkle un they,d have buggered off with him for a quiet meal.

    hi

    Bstds ought to be flogged if they,re caught,they,re nothing but scum who steal birds.
  13. Ha Ha the things we do in the name of falconry and the love of harris hawks.Waded through my local river too many times to count making in to my pair of feathered idiots on everything from a grey heron to ducks.
  14. Harrises are damn clever and i swear mine knows what time of day we go hawking thats when she shouts the most as for the male he just sits there totally silent just waiting to go.I,ve heard and seen a hell of a lot of noisy females but not so many males though,must be a woman thing.
  15. Guess [bANNED TEXT] you,ve reached the man who makes and sells these chaps on ebay.I developed them because my pair of Harrises got into a bit of bother with squirrels every time i flew them and i got sick of vet bills up to £100 quid each time they got chewed up.I developed these as a cross between an american design and one of my own and believe me they work.I,ve sold about 100 pairs to date with no bad feedback and a shitload of very happy customers.I guarantee the workmanship and quality on them and i,ve never had a pair returned to date or heard off anyone who,s bought and used them that
