Hi Lee,
Been to Palos Hospital lately? Met you last year in the ER. You told me I should check out your video. Very interesting! It's nice to know there are people like you that prefer to help these animals instead of hunting them. I work with exotic animals so I can definitely appreciate what you do.
Take care!

I'm looking into this art now. Its so impressive to see an animal thats able to fly away at any moment but yet chooses to come back.Sort of a symbiotic relationship. Plus your helping young birds live to adult hood where many die

I wish that ALL exotic animals had the rigorous demands on training and care that falconry does. This man is wonderful; he knows he has a wild animal, and treats the hawk accordingly. People need to THINK before the get dogs or cats, let alone a hawk, lion or tiger.

Parrots are very social birds and pretty much NEED company to feel secure, be it an owner, or another bird. Parrots left alone for extended periods tend to develop behavioral issues, especially if they don't have toys or something else constructive to occupy their time.
Raptors, however, are pretty much solitary birds who hunt and live alone except for mating, child rearing etc.
Harris hawks are one of the exceptions in that they are very social raptors.

awesome, not what i expected it to be. I thought the bird would form a bond with you much like a dog would. But regardless this is pretty awesome. Are parrots the same way or do they actually get close t to their owners?

@719iceman Shit's gonna hit the fan someday. And this guy, I can tell, will be ready for it. Both the Falcon and him will be warm and fed.
