a slower start this season due to commitments to the dogs pulling my female harris a little later than i usually do however were off the mark and she has bagged numerous rabbit and her first rook,rabbit numbers arn't great this year and the dogs work hard to provide a slip, i try not to ferret if i can help it as most of the time i hawk alone. i'd have to check but this is the birds 6th or 7th season, she knows her stuff when it comes to rabbit.

 

we fly woodland,sand-dunes,and fern and gorse laden hillsides wher she will soar in high wind over the dogs.

 

some of this years shots when the weather has permitted the camera.

i alternate between the dogs to rest em up and the old ESS is semi retiered.

 

i also have a young vizsla that i will bring on to point on the fern banks just to slow things up a bit as you know what spaniels are like, sometimes they bump bunnies and the hawk is out of position.
