Appreciate your approach at handling the bird right from the get-go, you are CORRECT in stating that the training/taming starts now. Nice technique you show.
Really interesting presentation, before it I couldn't image how to catch a bird of prey. Boy I've learned something. Keep making these interesting video's, really informative !!!
What a beautiful bird! Can't wait to see how she does in training, she's bigger than the one captive bred redtail I've worked with already. I've been really interested in Kazakh eagle falconry, apparently when they trap passage eagles they look for battle wounds to show that an eagle has already hunted and killed fox, their intended quarry. Super cool!
I didn't think she was that big when I got to her at the trap, but now that I've got her on the glove, she's pretty thick. Yes fox hunting with eagles would be sick!
Congrats on your catch! I trapped my first bird friday 👍 post some videos of your training, I think that would be great content and informative for other falconers! Cheers! 🍻
I’d like to have a pattern for those anklets, or a place to order? Taking my falconry exam next month pretty much got all furniture made but a place to attach a bell on the anklet just makes sense. If not I,ll try my luck at making a set. How many can I mess up?30?40? thanks I’m learning. An old retired guy but excited about the future with these birds.
@@Gregory-en5kq They are a blast to hunt with! Baba Yaga on Facebook is his name if you want to reach out to him. I would recommend cheap anklets and hood first since the Red-Tails like to scratch the hood and bite the anklets for the first month or two.
@@shawndobson5713 I bought them from Baba Yaga in Poland (he's on Facebook). I like the anklets, but I prefer the traditional kangaroo hide field jesses.
@@andybass2045 Well I will have some videos coming out soon! The hawk and I will be hunting rabbits and squirrels - it should really start getting good as we head into late fall with the leaves coming down.
I'm having the most difficult time finding juvenile birds. I have trapped and released several hags, but it's getting to be discouraging. I never got one last year, and so far this season I've only had adult birds come to my trap.
@jeffreyporter4678 I am a General falconer in massachusetts .. if you need help with trapping let me know I have many juvies by me right now. Not taking any this season
Hello Andy Bass first time watching from Social Circle GA wtching first time Justin joghnston told me about you from @kyackcatfishing wanted to check you out
@@gilbertgross5684 I'm not sure what to think of them yet. I am just so used to the old school jesses and set in my ways. 😂. I really like the anklets.

@@dr.pontia5029 Thank you very much!
that footage of the bird on the trap was incredible!
@@CayleMcEldowney Thanks! The trap cam really lets us get a good view!
She footed the trap forever and honestly I was a little shocked at the nooses not catching her sooner. Congrats on a beautiful bird.
@@PatokaPicker Thanks. Yes, this one took a while!

Thank you! I'll keep them coming!
I love how the mice are always totally unbothered by the whole thing as a hawk dances on their heads
@@ShawnInman Sometimes I think they are taunting the hawk 😂

Love the fishing videos but most excited for this- Let’s go
A group of us (3 kayaks and a boat) are headed to Michigan as we speak - going for Coho and King 👑 salmon, walleye, smallmouth bass, etc.
Never mind just made one I think it will work. Thanks

Need more snares!
I like your anklets did you kame those or have the pattern?
@@briansmith9734 Baba Yaga from Poland made them. I really like them!
Did you make your anklets and jesses or did you buy them? If you purchased can you share the store name?
@@shawndobson5713 I bought them from Baba Yaga in Poland (he's on Facebook). I like the anklets, but I prefer the traditional kangaroo hide field jesses.
@@FinsandTalons Thanks, I appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to share your videos too. I know that’s not easy.
@@shawndobson5713 Thanks Shawn 👍🏻
I cant do anything of that nature because im disabled i can only watch stuff very interesting
@@andybass2045 Well I will have some videos coming out soon! The hawk and I will be hunting rabbits and squirrels - it should really start getting good as we head into late fall with the leaves coming down.
@@FinsandTalons that's awesome can't wait
The anklets? Is the second hole for bell attachment?
Yeah, bells and transmitters
@@Gregory-en5kq Yes, bells and telemetry transmitter.

What state are you in? I've seen a lot of hags this year but I've been finding more and more passages as the season goes on.
@@FinsandTalons I'm in Massachusetts.
@@jeffreyporter4678 You're always welcome to come to Ohio and get a non-resident trapping permit for a RT and we can help you out!

You should weigh the hood and garment ahead of time, and subtract their weight automatically.
@@fantasia55 .9 oz for the hood 👍🏻
Love the video, but yeah the Starbucks may take away from the manliness of hunting with a hawk……….
It's coffee, not a frappucino. Cut me some slack.
How do you like those Baba Yaga hi-tech jesses? I think there trick as can be, simple twist and they are different.
@@gilbertgross5684 I don't know what to think of them yet. I'm just so used to the old school jesses and set in my ways.
I think you should name her Birdie….you know, since she was golf course gal
Oh yeah, Jeb also recommended Bertha. It's a driver made by Callaway...?
Yep, had a few of those growing up! Callaway is a cool name
Baba Yaga anklets?
Yes sir!
@@FinsandTalons easily the best available. It's what I run on all 3 of my birds as well.
@@Kapok6 Very high quality!
