I'm 68 . Got into the sport when I was 16 . It takes alot of knowledge to do this . And all of your time. There is nothing like it . Kudos to this video
I'm not in the sport. Simply an admirer. Here, in Staten Island N.Y., I see lot's of Red Tail, and some falcon. I'm told that there's Bald Eagle. I've even seen photo's. I don't know anyone who's involved with Falconry. I've never seen a Cooper Hawk. He's exquisite. Rapid growth. Quick learner. And he appears to be faster than all of the other birds I've seen on Falconry videos. He has an infectious cry. I can't help but want to respond to him. And the way you whistle and he responds! Whoa. That is an impressive bird of prey. Smart. Wishing you Best results in breaking those few bad habits. He's submissive, yet bravado. That bird's got swagger! Ivan the Terrible!
it so interesting seeing these falconry videos, also something i just notice cooper hawks seem far more vocal then other hawks are it quite fascinating.
So that's how its done! I see! Well, you did a spectacular job! Ivan learned a lot, and you should be very proud of yourself for training him so quickly.
Cooper's hawks I found always more voicestres than other species. Also very high strung and a bit nervous. The aggressive thing is also not only your bird . Great job on your training enjoyed your footage. Thanks for sharing 👍
The one in my yard sure seems friendly and unafraid of humans. She cheeps at me like the mother in this video when I scold her for scoping out my chickens. She even walks on the ground with us a few feet away, it's so weird.
I hawked for many years,both with a hen coopers,and red tails. Alot of hard work and repetitious training,not to mention the care. Excellent work,you know your stuff as a falconer.
Thank you for the education of just a little of the great amount of work and responsibility that go with this hobby/life. Great job, just found all your other videos.
Great video Trevor. Coming from Africa I am very fortune to be able to collect wild birds and I am curious to hear why Ivan showed aggression to you and how you fixed it?
i literally just found your videos, what is the purpose of the mat? like at the 11:55 mark, you dont seem to put any meat down yet he jumps to the mat pretty quickly. you showed that clip of the aggression, what is that from?
Awwww. I love that you let Gisele raise Ivan! He seems like he enjoyed being in the nest with her! I’m studying to become a falconer and have been watching videos about it for a while! The hacking thing seems pretty interesting. Even though I’m not sure I’d ever get an eyass just because of how hard it can be if they become too imprinted on you. But what’s it like to raise and train an eyass? Is it a really hard thing to do like I hear it is?
you ever have a bird that just wouldnt be trained? i dont know anything about this. but it was looking like Ivan was showing a bit of rebellion lol. like "NO, Dis ma food"
The theory behind the magic carpet is to assist with being able to catch multiples of game within the same hunting session while reducing the chance of possession or aggression on the kill. It helps to measure out the amount of reward they get per kill and you can continue hunting afterwards.
He comes to the glove very well. I'm looking to trap a brancher or early passage next year but I have only ever seen them trained on lures for recall with minimal use of the glove. How did you achieve that or is it because he's an imprint? I'm still an apprentice so I have a lot to learn but can't wait to get into accipiters
Trevol I only work with parental azores, I don't die because of my fear of: the aggressiveness the peep covering how do you solve it so that it does not happen.gracias.alberto.spain
alsape alsape hola Alberto, con suficiente tiempo entrenando a un bebé que criaste, puedes evitar los problemas de agresión y gritos. Hay un buen libro del autor Mike Mcdermott que es útil para leer.
Is there anyway you can share your anklet and jesses setup. I noticed it has a very minimal footprint, no pun intended, and want to see its construction. Thanks.
@@jaguartrev1 yeah you look like you are in cali. I have roller pigeons and they get attacked by Coopers sadly. I am trying to learn all i can about them to avoid having my pigeons being killed. what can you share? Is there a time of year that they hunt less or leave the area? I found April to Sept to be better, and flying my pigeons in the middle of the day after the Coopers have eaten and before they look for dinner. Is there a time when they are not raising young and not so aggressive>?
Sean Kirkpatrick they usually have babies in the late spring or early summer. Then the young birds are learning how to hunt from about September to December and also will get kicked out of the area by the parental pair around that time or in January/February. There is also the fall migration of a lot of hawks and falcons that are migrating south ahead of winter, and then a return migration in spring. Not really sure what can be done to avoid Cooper’s hawks attacking but clear airspace is a definite plus. Cooper’s hawks are ambush predators and like to check out what they are hunting from a nearby perch. I had my father move his pigeon coop to the other side of the yard away from a tall pine tree and that reduced some of his losses. Best of luck.
Sean Kirkpatrick I wouldn’t necessarily say that. If you have a resident pair of Cooper’s hawks, that’s when they are nesting and raising young. So they will end up coming to visit your pigeons daily to have a consistent food source for their chicks.
The hand aggression went away very quickly. Eventually my issue became a bit of carrying. I believe I did 3 things incorrectly that caused both problems. 1) I dropped his weight too quickly. I did this because he started not responding well to returning when out at hack. I should have just ended the hack early I think. 2) I was too quick with trade offs. I should have given him more time to pluck his kills. I was concerned with carrying, so I made in fairly quickly, but I think I was too quick. 3) I didn’t provide enough slips for him initially that were catchable. We were in very difficult terrain and so he didn’t catch something everyday. There was a lot of time in between slips as well. I should have done a better job providing him with more frequent opportunities.
sir it doesnt matter if ivan dont take diet for now .. he is young .. it will become ur advantage when it come in hard hunting activities . also try them to hunt above water surfaces .. it helps them more ..
Nugsy Malone that is tough. It’s easier to train them on the sight picture of what you do want them to hunt. Best to avoid places with a large amount of what you don’t want them to hunt. With Giselle, I have fields where we are hunting cottontail rabbit but towards the end of the hunting season a lot of ground-squirrels start appearing. I end up not hunting those fields towards the end of the season because she starts catching ground-squirrels instead of rabbits since they are easier to catch.
Wow... Pelatihan yang bagus. Apa yang akan anda lakukan terhadap burung tersebut setelah ia mampu mandiri, apakah anda masih akan memeliharanya sampai akhir usianya?
@@jaguartrev1 owww... Anda pasti akan sangat merindukannya. Tapi akan lebih baik jika burung tersebut anda serahkan kepada pusat konservasi satwa atau anda lepas liarkan, mengingat perannya terhadap keseimbangan ekosistem alam yang sangat penting.
Seeing how maternal she is absolutely heartwarming. She is so so gentle

This is REAL falconry! ... Outstanding!
He's certainly got character

Great Name 👌
This is fascinating to watch. What magnificent creatures! I'm amazed by Trevor's skill and expertise. Kudos!
I hope to one day do this. I'm not a huge domestic animal lover but this is on a level so cool and real. Simply beautiful.

So that's how its done! I see! Well, you did a spectacular job! Ivan learned a lot, and you should be very proud of yourself for training him so quickly.
i know I'm pretty off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online?
@Connor Korbin ehh atm I have been using flixportal. You can find it by googling :D -charles
@Charles Maison Thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) Appreciate it !
@Connor Korbin Happy to help :)
Cooper's hawks I found always more voicestres than other species. Also very high strung and a bit nervous.
The aggressive thing is also not only your bird .

Your a pretty good Pokémon trainer
Absolutely amazing. Bravo man, that is something else.
I really enjoy watching your videos and the way you train them , amazing job
All raptors are just so beautiful!
I absolutely envy your way of life.
Alex from Vancouver Canada.
Really cool your Goshawk helped you raise him. Nice work
You did a nice job with this bird, Trevor, and some good filming as well. Good luck next season.
awesome videos dude.. absoloutly amazing. keep em coming!
Amazing video could watch all day thanks
Nice work.
Wow!! Please keep us updated post more cooper videos!!
Thank you for the education of just a little of the great amount of work and responsibility that go with this hobby/life. Great job, just found all your other videos.
uparms thanks, appreciate it 👍🏼
Impressive work I myself have raised pigeons since I was a little kid and have numerous stories with the hawks and falcons as I fly my birds..
Great video Trevor. Coming from Africa I am very fortune to be able to collect wild birds and I am curious to hear why Ivan showed aggression to you and how you fixed it?
i literally just found your videos, what is the purpose of the mat? like at the 11:55 mark, you dont seem to put any meat down yet he jumps to the mat pretty quickly. you showed that clip of the aggression, what is that from?
Its to get him off the kill
I did not realise how small they were being used to Harris hawk
Glad I found your Channel, I love your Technique. OSH :-)
doesn't even need a bell he will let you know where he is lol
I am also raising a bird of prey, it is lovely because I have been raising it since it was born.
Awwww. I love that you let Gisele raise Ivan! He seems like he enjoyed being in the nest with her!
I’m studying to become a falconer and have been watching videos about it for a while! The hacking thing seems pretty interesting. Even though I’m not sure I’d ever get an eyass just because of how hard it can be if they become too imprinted on you. But what’s it like to raise and train an eyass? Is it a really hard thing to do like I hear it is?
My dream is to have peregrine falcon one day
Great examples of training
He's one hekin loud boi
Paddle On Drew he’s actually quite compared to the one I have
you ever have a bird that just wouldnt be trained? i dont know anything about this. but it was looking like Ivan was showing a bit of rebellion lol. like "NO, Dis ma food"
rytram prophet if you get them as a baby, they usually work out.
They don’t always work out if you trap them when they are older.
What an awesome sport/activity. Do you need a permit to do this?
If we have to ask, I suspect we can't afford it
Wow is amazing bro really like good job
Thank you 👍🏼
WHOA...well done!
Thumbs up for Ivan. Why don't you fly coopers on patridges, doves and road side pegions?
Pretty cool. Why did you start off with catching small migratory birds etc.?
This is awesome. It must have required some huge patience to do this.
So, what's the reason for the magic carpet?
The theory behind the magic carpet is to assist with being able to catch multiples of game within the same hunting session while reducing the chance of possession or aggression on the kill. It helps to measure out the amount of reward they get per kill and you can continue hunting afterwards.

Awesome editing!
Part 2 nice 👍
So Ivan's crying while flying had to do with the regiment during the hack? Do you have an introductory book you would recommend?
Super training
Yo did a wonderful job and I hope the goshawk and Cooper’s hawk are doing good!
Trevol I only work with parental azores, I don't die because of my fear of:
the aggressiveness
the peep
covering
how do you solve it so that it does not happen.gracias.alberto.spain

Wow I enjoyed watching this video. Just awesome.
Do you have any videos on your new set up??
Is there anyway you can share your anklet and jesses setup. I noticed it has a very minimal footprint, no pun intended, and want to see its construction. Thanks.
Ryan Reynolds definitely. I’m going to be getting out the next video in the Giselle series soon and will be talking about anklets/jesses there.
really enjoying your videos can you tell me where you got the magic carpet training idea from or did you come up with it your self
where are you? IM in Santa Barbara, looks like you are too?
Sean Kirkpatrick I’m closer to Simi Valley

@@jaguartrev1 so would you say it's safest to fly pigeons April to Sept? That's the impression i have, but no one really knows I think.
Sean Kirkpatrick I wouldn’t necessarily say that. If you have a resident pair of Cooper’s hawks, that’s when they are nesting and raising young. So they will end up coming to visit your pigeons daily to have a consistent food source for their chicks.

What the good food / tidbits for sparrowhawk?
sir it doesnt matter if ivan dont take diet for now .. he is young .. it will become ur advantage when it come in hard hunting activities . also try them to hunt above water surfaces .. it helps them more ..
Fascinating
Teringin la pulak nak bela..tapi mcm susah jaaa..apapon terbaik bro! 👍
best your the best sir, i'm really really love this video
Seems like a very smart and alert Hawk. What state were you doing this?
Keep the videos coming, looking forward to the next.
Very good video and excellent bird handling!
tokara61 thanks. Appreciate it 👍🏼
Can you train hawks to not kill certain things?
Nugsy Malone that is tough. It’s easier to train them on the sight picture of what you do want them to hunt. Best to avoid places with a large amount of what you don’t want them to hunt.

I end up not hunting those fields towards the end of the season because she starts catching ground-squirrels instead of rabbits since they are easier to catch.
@@jaguartrev1 Ah ok, so its like theres only so much you can do huh
Very good......Falcon
What does putting him up for the molt mean? Do you have some influence over him molting?
Molt is when they shed their juvenile feathers. And no the falconer doesn't have any say over that.
do you have any problems of him coming back to you??
Great video's Trevor!! What state are you in?
RIght after 3 mins you pull your hand away and Gisselle is like "WAAAUUUUUUUHHHT???"
Thanks for sharing!
Curious; why the aggression? Looked almost like he panicked or maybe just had a bit of a temper tantrum? :)
what a different cooper and crested goshawk?
Wow... Pelatihan yang bagus. Apa yang akan anda lakukan terhadap burung tersebut setelah ia mampu mandiri, apakah anda masih akan memeliharanya sampai akhir usianya?
Zetta Hari Ini Saya memberinya kepada seorang teman karena saya menjadi terlalu sibuk dengan pekerjaan
@@jaguartrev1 owww... Anda pasti akan sangat merindukannya. Tapi akan lebih baik jika burung tersebut anda serahkan kepada pusat konservasi satwa atau anda lepas liarkan, mengingat perannya terhadap keseimbangan ekosistem alam yang sangat penting.
Terrible by name terrible by nature. Hehe! "Ain't stealing all my kills!" He was a growing lad, It's not fat it's power!
What's with the bell? People put bells on cats so they DONT catch prey
Jerry Boics it helps me find the hawk when it’s down in tall brush.
Cool vid. But those guns tho!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
thank you for vidéo.....
Really I like ur video
Good 😎
SUPER
Apa perbedaan goshawk dengan sparrow hawk??
What's on his leg
Soo cute
😍
nice video
How about falconary shows? it's a bout talent of speed master in picking hunts😅😎😉🦅😇😍
Where is the mother?
La javab trainer good
Those are some strange parrots you have
Parrots that could easily kill rats mice other birds in the snakes.
Be sure that you are catching common sparrows such as house sparrows, and not the rarer ones.
👍👍👍
Nice sar
whos better ? Giselle or ivan?
Adorei
😍👍
lindo trabalho !
i like the baby hawk.
nice
Where are the two eggs
You are from
