That is really cool for kids to see!
At the Air Force Academy, they have a falcon area that is open to the public.
Glad everyone had fun Chris.Molly

My Nana used to make squirrel head gravy...boiled the carcass, picked the meat, and made a brown gravy with a roux from some part of the squirrel, added meat back and served it over biscuits. I remember it being real good, but not real eggable

That is 100x amazing. My 11 y/o just saw that and was enthralled.
We have a pair of red tails that have lived on our ridge for the past year and it's always exciting watching them dive into the pasture next door after their prey. I can't imagine how fun it would be hunting with them.Knoxville, TN

Cool post.A lotta hunters I know fuss about there being too many of them and that they kill all the rabbits and quail.MS State put up a camera on the nest of a pair and documented there diet as they raised their offspring.Over 90% of the prety they brought back to the nest was field mice and snakes.

I knew if anybody had a recipe, you would! Rednecks unite! They are cleaned and put up...will try something soon
-
I'll shoot yo an email!

So cool!! I had a friend in Atlanta that was involved in this and I always wanted to give it a try but the timing/location just hasn't worked out.
Thanks for sharing your pictures and experience...amazing!

Good looking bird. Immature hen? I'm surprised the aylmeri aren't wider. Most of the Georgia falconers I knew used an extra wide aylmeri that had a large grommet down low for the jesses, and a smaller (size '0') above for the bell attachment. This arrangement kept the bell from interfering with footing, and provided the legs more protection from the squirrel’s teeth.
