Met Rodney at presentation at Yale University. Fascinating. in addition to his mastery of falconry he's helping at-risk youth to see possibilities they may never had considered.
Now this is a brother. Go head bro, that's what I'm talking bout. Black man showing he connect with nature is so beautiful. Great video and great example for our people let alone our youth. You a god reincarnated for our people brotha, live on.
Awaiting the possible pip of eggs at the National Arboretum DC nest of Mr. President and Lotus. It's heartwarming to know that this gentleman has a hand in eagles coming back to the area, both in repopulation and clean up of the Anacostia. Kudos to you Rodney Stotts.
Great job Rodney on telling your story and showing you passion for what your doing. Please share your website and how we all can support you in your efforts to help our young people.
I love your spirit my brother. Your birds are wondeful. I have loved watching birds since I was 8. In my country we only have one species of Hawk. I would spend hours watching them hunt. regds Olly
What a wonderful film. Ludger Balan of the Urban Divers is a local Falconer in New York City who does similar programming in my market. -Morgan Powell, Bronx River Sankofa
His name is Rodney Stotts, I just found out about him and agree, Amazing! I believe this is his RUclips Channel: ruclips.net/user/rodneystotts . I'm looking into contacting him as well.
hello friend congratulations, a question how long I have to leave my white-tailed hawk with the hood on, so that it is trained and I am not afraid, takes 2 days put the hood I talk and at the same time I give a few bites of meat. Tell me, what I do or what you recommend is fine. in advance Thanks a million regards
I would be real happy to meet you! I really love birds I am a conservationist in the California and this is what I do! If you can contact me that would be great!
Awesome. But is there any need to say he’s “black”? Like, we can see that, so what. He’s a solid dude, pigment in his skin is irrelevant to anything ever.
Love this story and I have lots of respect for this man!!! Keep spreading that knowledge!!! Send us a message @natureswonderlandb3 we would love help you!!!
I think he would be in trouble with the law if he tried to trap and keep a young bird of prey here in the UK... because they are protected under the law nowadays...
excellent work but i didnt see any reason to say "black"?. theese birds dont choose race, religion,sex or whatever. so we need to do the same, at least as much as birds do, we are human.
Stotts has an infectious personality. He’s doing wonderful deeds. He Really is amazing!
A righteous brother, what a legend!.

Wonderful film. FYI - Rodney's website is now rodneysraptors.com. Can you add to your film description?
i want to be a falconer can you tell me what the questions they ask or if you can help me pass the test

Heru!
Thanks grate information l am making a trap and going to get my own falcon
Make sure you do it legally with proper sponsor testing inspected equipment and facility as well as permit and licensing
Don’t worry about a permit. Your white so it’s ok. The last all white sport
Very positive. How can we make donations?

I would be real happy to meet you! I really love birds I am a conservationist in the California and this is what I do! If you can contact me that would be great!
Fine documentary on falconry and education. But don‘t trap em, breed em.
My name is mac.I am very interested in falconer. I would like your information if you don't mind.
Awesome. But is there any need to say he’s “black”? Like, we can see that, so what. He’s a solid dude, pigment in his skin is irrelevant to anything ever.
It's more about search engines, I searched specifically for black falconers because there are very few,

Love this story and I have lots of respect for this man!!! Keep spreading that knowledge!!! Send us a message @natureswonderlandb3 we would love help you!!!
what's a Black Falcon??
I think he would be in trouble with the law if he tried to trap and keep a young bird of prey here in the UK... because they are protected under the law nowadays...
may allah guide you to islam man
How is trapping a free bird right? I don't think that is right. Can you tell me how that is fair to the bird. Maybe something I'm missing.
Hey were can I trap one.
You've got to do testing have a sponsor inspected mews and equipment and permit to do this. It is illegal otherwise
How do a bird get cancer? They call anything cancer
What does his race have to do with it? Should we specify the race of all falconers from around the world? Leave race out of it!
excellent work but i didnt see any reason to say "black"?. theese birds dont choose race, religion,sex or whatever. so we need to do the same, at least as much as birds do, we are human.
This guy is pure black.
Guard my weed farm falcon.
Owning a 🦅 BIRD 🦢 is a PAIN THE ASS
This is beautiful
