Was out playing hookey with BB today and bumped into a local falconer who was exercising his birds. We've seen him a few times before and he's a friendly chap so he put a couple of his birds through their paces for us (and BB got a chance to fly them too
)
His Harris Hawk stooping in to the call
The pictures get a bit blurry now - things were moving fast!
Going vertical as the food is hurled in the air
Rolling for the catch
Nice thing to witness on a wander huh?
A couple of his owl flying too - not sure on the species tbh - short eared?
Owl push ups?
