What a cracking thread, . i dont normaly read a lot of the longer threads as i start getting board but this one did not bore me at all, i was a bit sick when i seen the bird had passed away but my hat comes of to you for digging in and bringing another bird on,falconry need's more people with your type of minerals,i look forward to reading more of your thread when the season kicks in.
One negative thing i have to say and it is 100% not in a bad way or intended to be but steer clear of the electric boxs mate like a good few folk have mentioned,because you have more chance of loosing your bird
