Love the way you think about the birds perspective of learning without frustration and too much repetition. A great philosophy for teaching all animals. Thanks, keep posting!
Like the saying goes "variety is the spice of life"... even when it comes to animals. I believe thats why so many people are depressed in life... too much repetition.
Soooo ... I'm sitting here in my small apartment near Tokyo practicing how to hold an imaginary raptor using proper hand and arm positioning, and thinking about the kind and quality of glove I need. Never mind that I don't have the facilities or available habitat or opportunity to have a bird of prey ... I'm still going to practice (and enjoying doing it too). 😁 Thank you Falcon Lady!
No idea why I just watched a lot of your video's, I don't even own a falcon and I doubt I'll ever do. But I just found it very interesting and I like the way you explain it. Good job.
I first became interested in falcons when a pair of peregrines nested on the top of my office building in San Francisco (in a sheltered area). This was in the mid '90's and falcons were endangered here in California. A nest cam was set up so we could watch the eggs being incubated and hatch--cute little fluff balls. The babies were banded at about 6 weeks of age. It was such fun to watch them grow to be juveniles and finally take the great leap off the ledge (There were trained volunteers on the ground to return the fledgling to the nest in case the initial flight was unsuccessful.) We also could go outside and watch the parents train their kids to fly and hunt. Thank you for showing us how falcons and other birds of prey can be trained to interact and hunt with humans. Your falcon and goshawk are beautiful.
I also became interested in peregrines from the San Francisco group 25 years ago, I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, then the San Jose City Hall birds, this is so fascinating to learn, love seeing Fable as well. I have taught outdoor school for years and we have many raptors. Thanks so much!!
I love videos like yours because they show a more intimate view of falconry and most importantly the everyday interactions with the birds. Love the little things, it reminds me of my lovebirds. Big or small, tiny dinosaurs all.
The best bird I've ever seen fly was a Peregrine called 'Lark' at the Hawk Conservancy, Hampshire. He was the main event that always got the crowd excited. He really did show what a Peregrine can do, and always worked on full tilt. Amazing, and I miss his displays as they were always breathtaking.
Ive loved raptors my whole life used to draw them endlessly as a kid, theres about a .7% chance I will actually get into falconry. But just seeing the birds and learning is great, so beautiful
That was very interesting...awe inspiring too. I can tell you put a lot of work in ... My love for birds grew over 6 yrs ago when long story short I identified over 35 species of bird in my yard and within 3 yrs I was watering and feeding quite a few. One pair had offspring and so on. They told their best mates to come on over. They knew me and would fly down when I whistled. I simply adore them. The closest I came to a Hawk and an Eagle was when the Hawk grabbed a bird on 3 occasions, and in the Eagles case when he grabbed a rabbit. eek
Fist time coming across your channel and I must say I subscribed immediately and sought you out on Instagram as well, enjoyed this video very much as you provided great information. 🙂
Awesome job, and good editing! Very interesting. I think I was a bird in my previous life, and glad you treat them with such great respect! Thanks for your dedication.
A K I guess I’ve always been fascinated with flight, aerodynamic shapes and trying to understand the complexity of lift using the least amount of energy. Rafters that can ride thermals and pelicans that ride up currents have evolved to take advantage of this. I’m a pilot and have been a flight instructor for 40 years. Birds and their relatives have been around for millions of years. I had to be in there some where!
@@aileron48 Makes perfect sense to me! I feel like the buddhists have it right - that we have lived thousands of previous lives. Flight is friggin cool. I sometimes wonder what it would be like if aliens came to our planet and saw animals moving through the air unsupported. I feel like they would understand things that are bound to the earth by gravity, but I feel like flight would potentially be a totally foreign concept for lifeforms from other planets. I've always loved flight as well. It's like real magic.
@@AK-jt7kh Aliens would totally understand flight and accept it as motion through a fluid, that they would be familiar with. Flight is movement in the third dimension which is awesome. I don't understand anything past the fourth dimension which is time. Good luck to you. Are you Amy? I'm Ron in California. Ron, as in aileron, which is French for "little wing".
best falconery video for beginners i could find so far, great job and thanks for this verry usseful information, keep up the great work and greetings from Belgium
I started watching your video because I love birds of prey and falconry has always fascinated me. You have such beautiful birds. That goshawk looks like business!
Hi friends!! I just finished learning some interesting stuff about these birds this morning. Absolutely amazing bird. Very beautiful as well. Extreme eye sights. Tysm for sharing as well. ❤
I love this channel! Can't get enough of it. I watched all the videos at once and thought, "Is that all?" I'm looking forward to more falconry adventures with all the birds.
Falcons are sooo gorgeous!!!! And you are really gentle and respectful with them too! You’re my favourite falconer!!!🦅 PS: I know it’s an eagle emoji, but I can’t find a falcon one. Lots of love A 11-year-old
i love this video! i'm currently in a hyper fixation on falconry, wanting to know everything and anything about it. and i want to take courses once i live on my own. i've been doing tons of research the past few days and this helped so much!
Thank you for one of the more important video's! I know popularity on youtube is not what it should be but thank you for the your experience. This video really helped for the birds I have, which are not what you would think. Anyway keep it up!
I'm sure this wasn't even the intended usage of your video, but I just wanted you to know that this is a fantastic resource for writing, roleplaying, or illustrating things like D&D characters!
Thanks a lot. My Amazon parrot, Is happier on my hand now. I still learn after a these years. The angle of my hand is now correct. Thanks. 👍 from me. Keith. UK 🇬🇧
Just found your channel yesterday. It's really amazing. I briefly worked in falconnery few years ago, owner just told me my positionning, handling and stability was perfect and i just used to do it the way you showed without ever questionning why i did it the correct way, now i know ! Amazing walks with these guys, getting them back on my arm after they flew away and walked for some time. Would completely love to work among these birds again, hello from France !
Consider me subscribed. Watching your clips has inspired me to consider making my own clips. In my case, it would be about Rottweillers. Sadly, they're often misunderstood, mainly because they're often depicted in films or TV shows as being vicious. There are no bad Rottweilers. There are only bad owners of Rottweilers. Yes, they can be a handful, if you don't understand dog behavior. Not everyone can handle them because they can be quite boisterous. That said, a well-balanced Rottie is a fiercely loyal, loving soul. They're highly intelligent, as well as, comical. All my Rotties have exhibited a distinct sense of humour. My main reason for making clips has to do with one quality many (but not all) Rotties possess. They growl when they're happy. For anyone not used to this, it could be easily misinterpreted as aggression. Of all the clips I've watched on RUclips about Rotties, none cover this behavior. Perhaps it's time there was. Thoroughly enjoying the channel. Pleased I stumbled across it today. Peace. EDIT: Question. Do falcons show affection or love? My impression is, they're almost reptilian in this regard.
@Shayne Punim That is an unfortunate story. Since I don't know the family and the dog personally, I can't say precisely why the dog would do that. All I can assume is the dog was ill or not trained correctly. Rottweilers are not for everybody. Their training and discipline is very important. If you don't dominate them correctly, they have a tendency to try and become the alpha since they are highly intelligent. Personally speaking, all my Rottweilers have been exceptional. This includes my current Rottie, Zeus. Our vet called us to ask if we wanted him because they knew we were experienced with them. Zeus was barely two years old and had three different owners. Sadly, he had been abused and his last owner wanted him to be put down because she couldn't handle him, that was five years ago. At first, he was a handful. However, after proper training, mixed with plenty of love, he's now settled in and is a fantastic member of our family.
@@bullzdawguk Some dogs, just like people, are born with certain personalities/tendencies, its not as simple as "all dogs are good, its the owners fault" theory. I've owned many dogs over the years... two of them being Rottweilers... one of the best dogs I've owned, very smart, gentle, protective and intelligent dog, never needed a leash, if I stopped he stopped, if I took one step he'd take one step, greatly miss that one eyed pooch😔
The "alpha dog" theory has been thoroughly debunked, most notably by the same man who brought the theory into prominence in the 1960's (Dr. David Mech). But even if dominance hierarchy hadn't been debunked, it still doesn't mean it applies to domesticated dogs, since they are not wolves. I've owed "dangerous" dog breeds for 18 years and I've never had to dominate my dogs for them to be well behaved. Positive reinforcement training has worked 100% of the time. And that's the same type of training I see being done with the birds on this channel, so it obviously spans species. :)
Duncan Disorderly I hope you start your own channel, I would definitely subscribe, I had Dobermans all my life, but my family members had Rottweiler, I was afraid of one, he would stand next to you and just start growling.
@@Karadoxical I've never heard of the "Alpha theory" being debunked. I believe there is a hierarchy in all social animals including humans, I took notice of this before I ever heard of the "theory"... it seems obvious to me when looking at the way our society is structured.
I've always been fascinated with falconry. I've seen great videos here on RUclips but yours is the first that really made me understand all the facets of this wonderful "sport" (is it considered a sport, I'm wondering..??) Anyway, first rate -- consider me subscribed.
It's always good to learn something new, we sometimes take away life lessons from subjects that we will never approach in own lives. Even if you come to see the love, dedication and discipline that this woman puts into her birds you will gain insight into qualities you might need to excel in your own interests.
This may not make any sense if you haven't read certain books by Terry Pratchett, but you seem to be a lot more intact than Hodgesaarghh. What does Hodgesaarghh do wrong?
Thanks for sharing this information. Great work, great video. I can only imagine the wealth of knowledge that has been accrued over the centuries with regards to falconry.
I just started watching your videos...I really like them so much. Your presentation is very good and smooth....The birds are beautiful...again I say thank you so much. I am learning a great deal about this and what you do etc..
Can you do a video of how to properly load food into the glove? This is something I have the most difficulty doing. Love your videos btw, very informative and extremely helpful!
Am loving watching these infact no idea how i got here just happy i did as i love nature and wildlife and find it quite relaxing to watch the birds and i do mean the feathered kind🤣 Amy your doing a wonderfull job and have my admiration for your enthusiasm for caring for these birds your an absolute inspiration and very interesting to listen to and thank you for uploading these videos😎👍

Olá Amy Parabéns por mais um excelente vídeo com importantes informações. Mais uma vez parabéns pelo seu excelente trabalho e pela sua dedicação. Daniel V. Borba. (Brazil)
Cool stuff. About how to perch the bird on your thumb, it reminds me for parrots, if you don't have the right sized perches they can get foot problems, better when they can wrap their feet around properly. Rocco does commonly climb up to my should, and it is because he loves me AND he wants the highest perch, he's not allowed on my head.
This really gets me interested in birds. Currently my carrier choices are between chemistry and piloting a plane which is in high demand in my area. Sucks how there's no falconrys around here.
ApolloandWarrior _ I’m sorry...I don’t mean to be rude, but you meant “career”. The only reason I bring it up is that “carrier” makes it sound like you’re trying to send mail. Like your only two options for sending mail are to fly your own plane or use chemistry...because there’s no falconries around to take your package. 😂 Honestly. I hope you don’t fix it because I really got a kick out of the word play!
Im looking into this hobby, I've loved the peregrine faulken since I was a child, I didn't know you could have them and train them as hunters and companions. I'm very interested in owning and looking after one
There's been a pair of Peregrine falcons nesting for some years atop the building at E59th and 5th Avenue here in Manhattan. I was always seeing little pieces of torn up pigeon parts & bones on the sidewalk around it. I'd look up every time I walked past & would see them flying once in awhile. I've seen more birds of prey of many kinds in New York City than I ever saw growing up in decidedly non - urban Connecticut.
I have always loved falconry but sadly it's not really compatible with a 9-5, gave it up some years ago. Accipiter's were alway's my thing. Awesome vid. Thank you. Have to slightly disagree with you about glove leather though, coming from experience of carrying a European eagle owl for several hour's at a time. The good old day's.
amazing vid =) its nice to see these amazing creatures and learn about them / handling them even though ill probs never be doing this, i did do it once though when i was younger on holiday.
Your channel popped up in my feed, and though I’ll never be a falconer, I’ve always been fascinated by the practice. Your videos are truly enjoyable. I’ve heard Helen Macdonald interviewed on her “H is for Hawk” book, and her training of a goshawk. It sounded challenging, and rewarding. Do you have, or plan to have any similar birds, or would that not fit a multiple bird “family”?
J S You know you’re an introvert who learns way too much and uses random knowledge seeking as procrastination when RUclips’s algorithm comes across something like falconry and is like “Yep. This is totally for you. You’ll never be one of these people - but you’re gonna watch it, and you’re going to like it!” Hello to you from a similarly minded human.
I love watching you and your birds. I would love a video on why you do this, is it your full time job ? Is this facility at your home or do you work for someone? what made you get into falconry and what do you do with the birds, do people pay you to hunt with them?
This is a terrific resource. I doubt I'll ever be engaging in falconry, but it's fascinating to learn these details nevertheless.
GetMeThere1 Lol. You’re like me. What are you procrastinating under the guise of feeding your learning addiction?
@@AK-jt7kh What am I procrastinating? Probably, life in general, lol.
@@GetMeThere1 Yup that sounds about right! XD
Great demonstration. As a falconer of over 13 years, I learned something today. Thank you.
Ramsay Ward Now THAT is a compliment
Very informative. I think I’ve got the basics. Now I just need a falcon.

I use this knot to temporarily tie my show steers & Belgian horses also, just with a much larger lead rope!

This helps a loooot. Thank you so much💕
Cool stuff. About how to perch the bird on your thumb, it reminds me for parrots, if you don't have the right sized perches they can get foot problems, better when they can wrap their feet around properly. Rocco does commonly climb up to my should, and it is because he loves me AND he wants the highest perch, he's not allowed on my head.
This really gets me interested in birds. Currently my carrier choices are between chemistry and piloting a plane which is in high demand in my area. Sucks how there's no falconrys around here.
ApolloandWarrior _ I’m sorry...I don’t mean to be rude, but you meant “career”. The only reason I bring it up is that “carrier” makes it sound like you’re trying to send mail. Like your only two options for sending mail are to fly your own plane or use chemistry...because there’s no falconries around to take your package. 😂 Honestly. I hope you don’t fix it because I really got a kick out of the word play!
Fascinating
Do you have any advice for someone looking into falconry in an area that has no master falconers at all?
Im looking into this hobby, I've loved the peregrine faulken since I was a child, I didn't know you could have them and train them as hunters and companions. I'm very interested in owning and looking after one
There's been a pair of Peregrine falcons nesting for some years atop the building at E59th and 5th Avenue here in Manhattan. I was always seeing little pieces of torn up pigeon parts & bones on the sidewalk around it. I'd look up every time I walked past & would see them flying once in awhile. I've seen more birds of prey of many kinds in New York City than I ever saw growing up in decidedly non - urban Connecticut.
I have always loved falconry but sadly it's not really compatible with a 9-5, gave it up some years ago.
Accipiter's were alway's my thing. Awesome vid. Thank you.
Have to slightly disagree with you about glove leather though, coming from experience of carrying a European eagle owl for several hour's at a time.
The good old day's.
Stunning gos and great video:)
Very much enjoying the videos, thank you for sharing.
May I ask who are the makers of the gloves you are using?
Amazing work 👏
amazing vid =) its nice to see these amazing creatures and learn about them / handling them even though ill probs never be doing this, i did do it once though when i was younger on holiday.
Great video, explained everything perfect.
Your channel popped up in my feed, and though I’ll never be a falconer, I’ve always been fascinated by the practice.
Your videos are truly enjoyable.
I’ve heard Helen Macdonald interviewed on her “H is for Hawk” book, and her training of a goshawk. It sounded challenging, and rewarding.
Do you have, or plan to have any similar birds, or would that not fit a multiple bird “family”?
J S You know you’re an introvert who learns way too much and uses random knowledge seeking as procrastination when RUclips’s algorithm comes across something like falconry and is like “Yep. This is totally for you. You’ll never be one of these people - but you’re gonna watch it, and you’re going to like it!”
Hello to you from a similarly minded human.
I love watching you and your birds. I would love a video on why you do this, is it your full time job ? Is this facility at your home or do you work for someone? what made you get into falconry and what do you do with the birds, do people pay you to hunt with them?
Im new but loving it!!!!
