It's been a slow slog for rabbits this year - we've only managed to get about 20 of them.

In addition to the HAHA sisters, we've been flying this female ferruginous hawk for two seasons now - she's small for a female but no less feisty!

Beautiful birds! Looks like a hen pheasant that the one has caught. Can you catch game birds with them?

We've killed about two dozen pheasants over the years with a smattering of quail and chukars but game birds are more suited to falcons than hawks. Our kills have been mostly opportunistic while after ground game.

Wish you were closer, something I would like to experience.

Wonderful pictures and congrats on the season. Falconry is something very special !

Thanks for sharing.
