All my falcons are imprints so noise comes with it I'm afraid. No nabours for me to worry about a lot of my imprints are quite in the feild! theres imprints and 'imprints' done be someone like yourself all the benefits are there to be had, done be some numpty wanting and easy gos or spar , then its a tragedy for the bird and any one living near by lol something I would love to ry to do one day however, likely be a goshawk male

lol its a ben long one I had lay about my usual glove I used for last few years is a disgrace now , think I go tit from due north cracking glove might order another one, this n a little glam for my liking, quality though had a few bits from Ben and all cracking stuff, like his lures. Good day today Pointer thanks pal , am real pleased with my new Harris just the ticket to get over Dexter, nice easy style of hawking , no pressure , bird a real pleasure to fly allowing me freedom to concentrate on controlling the spaniel, she enjoying working with the hawk as well, Harris very hard to beat

Depends on overall hunting ability, out and out screamer no chance too much for neighbours to take, however the odd murmur etc no problem to me personally, think if ya take one on like that ya have a chance of correcting the behaviour by breaking certain associations maybe start next moult

its funny thing seeing say CH wanting too take on this bird, most would openly advise to steer well clear and start with a fresh bird etc , good to see though that these lads will do best to give a bird that's getting wasted a fair chance, cannot save em all though lads, summat needs doing abou the amount bred and sold to divvies, its stunning to think that a goshawk or any hawk for that matter becomes so cheap ya can afford a quick dabble and not suffer the loss too much, ffs it splain cruelty but its allowed to happen all above board and legal, jesus that's poor, the hawkboard BFC ought to g

my saluki dog is the most dominant In my pack, same when we hunt out with others he likes too let em all know just who is the boss dog wise, out and about he has a personal hatred of staffies and will be openly aggressive to em even if he on the leash, he also dislikes all small dogs anything that can get underneath him, detests that he does lol , very sociable dog with people though , openly seeks affection, but odd person he dislikes he will simply ignore or leave the room, I gotta laugh at him cos lets face it they don't exactly look a 'hard' sort of dog and I know if my lurcher retaliated

I reckon had the prime minister at the time not got involved and supported them (for his own selfish reasons) they would of been under a lot more scrutiny than they have seen so far, I can't mind another time in history where a prime minister made comment on a case like this , its not their remit to get involved in such matters, but GB did have his say at the time and I reckon it affected the Portuguese investigation and changed the outcome somewhat, imho they done it end of story, why, how etc will likely never be known , that copper that investigated it even wrote a book about it ffs, he kno

cheeky fooker 400 for sumat he cant handle lol mind be worth it just to get it right and enjoy it in the future, some cracking sport for someone there mind , nice challenge to get bird right , I reckon once weight and diet are established and he hu8nting he will soon come on leaps and bounds,

if its been done roght could be a good bord for someone, it may well go quiet when it arrives at new owner, however my own experience stops with parent reared types, I like em to know exactly what they are, ffs I struggle enough with women of me own species never mind a female with massive talons
-
gutted for you loosing such a promising young bitch, real shame
-
pays to keep em that way until they seen a few seasons graft imho, get a much better read on the dog all round, see him under pressure and on different game over time , different places and conditions etc too many bred form untested imho

theres a lot of supposedly extinct stuff that's still out there if ya know where too look or chance upon it and know ya stuff, seen goshawks wild pairing years back when I was a teenager and out collecting eggs offspring still nest in same tree years later, they not even that far from the beaten track, not many see em or know they their, never seen one with alymeri or jesses on , be worth having one of them in ya mews, ultimate killing machine would be a wild take goshawk female, proper mare to man down though electric supernatural hunting ability would be the pay off

well done mate, pups looking top draw, doing real well, look forward to seeing em next season -
Alrite lads, due to circumstances beyond my control Ive had to make the reluctant decsision to part with Dexter, he has gone to aother falconer whom will kite train and enter him to feathered quarry. Its been a hard choice to make, but I was failing to get the required level of fitness into him to enter him back again to hare, I lost many days due to work, family and weather etc entering him too such quarry even half fit was just too dangerous for me too seously consider, I feel he has done extremley well in the season I had with him and I could not see him sat out for a year in mews, far bett

Im a total atheist mate and am pals with a muslim , he seems to like me ,so that fooks that theory, them texts koran and bible etc all written years ago way of controlling the masses, its all just words and open to several interpretations , take what you want for it, soem weak individuals are so easily exploited by the truly deranged, sad thats the way life is for some,

No sane person wants any bloodshed but left unchecked islam as a habit of imploding when it reaches a certain proportion of the population, the troubles around the world are testament to this, no right wing group would ever be radicalised enough to behead someone on the street in the name of their beliefs. All the people who live in this land do so willingly if they do not want to be English with English values then i suggest they not be given the option of being part of English society anymore and i mean any colour race or religion, the problems arise when one group's ideology is to suppress

some deluded fools seem to think theres going to be some sort of 'revolution' problem is only a small minority actually fall for the bullshit that the press spin out, there will be no race war, no rivers of blood, islamification of UK/Europe etc its just not gunna happen, full stop, its media bullshite whipped up by wannabees muppets on both sides of the so called divide, spouting hatered and rhetoric crap, BNP C18 NF EDL fookng embarrassment the lot of them , same shit every ten years or so, then they fade away back into the background, always refoming when the trouble starts, gutless the lot

if nthey agreed on everything and made peace they would simply edit it, racial tension suits some more than others, awful for those that live in the areas where shitsttorms are whipped up over race religion, real shame, most just wanna live in peace and quiet, regardless it rolls on
