Hi all, I love hunting with my rifle, but another very big passion of mine is hunting with my falcons. I know it is not big game hunting in normal ways, but trus me it is big game for a smallish falcon. My female weight about 620gram, and I have hunted pheasant cocks with her that weighed 1500gram. I hope you enjoy. ![]() my female on a spanish red leg partridge in toledo, Spain ![]() my female on a mallard in Germany ![]() another mallard ![]() and another mallard ![]() female on grey partridge in Germany ![]() female on her first partridge a few years ago ![]() female on another grey partridge ![]() my female on her first pheasant a few years ago ![]() me with my first bird, a harris hawk, hawking rabbits cheers Rasmus | ||

thank you all. Average lifespan is about 12-20years, and you can hunt them the whole time. I know of a falconer that still hunts with his falcon that is 23 years old. The bigger bird like eagles get much older. cheers Rasmus | |||

Fantastic, I wish I had the time to devote to a bird of prey. How often do you fly her? Do you still have your harris hawk? | |||

in hunting season I fly her almost every day, at least 3-4 times a week. -But also depends on weather, I tend to go out on good weather days, as this stimulates her for the very high pitches and good flights. cheers Rasmus | |||
