Enjoyed the episode. The conditions can be even more challenging than the quarry, but with favourable, weather there's no better sport than hawking blue hare in the highlands of Scotland.
Love to watch this magnificent sport but can't for the life of me understand why this is legal & hunting hare with sight hounds is not ? Maybe a class thing!!
Maybe because it's one on one with an eagle/hare and with dogs, its often two chasing one hare? Maybe its public perception thing too? People like to see BOP.
Where do the Hare's come from? Like are they just standing in the open when the birds are released? Are they ferreted out by the dogs? I have zero experience/knowledge of ...is it called falconry?
Ironic this estate is letting you use domesticated birds of prey to hunt. Pity lots of estates grudge wild birds of prey doing the same and wipe them out instead.
Thats not a pet bird, if anything this bird becomes smarter by eating other prey aside from hares. Do your research!!!not any Joe can do this. This takes many many weeks of teaching and training.
Back into the wild? WTF are you talking about they were all bred in captivity! that is why they don't need an excuse. Why let people think you are an idiot, open your mouth or make a stupid comment & prove them right!
What a spectacular way of getting supper! That fake-out trick the one eagle uses just shows how smart these birds are.
What beautiful birds.
The maneuver described at 5:45 is amazing. So much strategy from nature.

What a majestic creature . Absolutely amazing .
That furrxRT looks awesome. Looks like what you would expect if you crossed a gos with a eagle.
Need to train the eagle to try again once he misses the first time like the peregrin falcon.
Amazing hobby. Good luck.

At which age have you become a falconer
what are the things over their eyes and heads? Sorry, I'm new to the channel.
+Kira Randle Hoods - keeps them.calm. / Charlie
that was epic
I love how these guys can reach in and mess with a bird which is on prey . Try that with my Redtails and you better have a glove on.
Impressive.

tackyblack the hares are plentiful in hills all over scotland
Hares don't borrow as rabbits their better weapon is camouflage.
I was wondering why I didn't see run into a hole. Dumb on the rabbits part @@TheGrmany69

I prefer black eagle rather then gold eagle
whats that funny music in the background about...is it a civil war or something??
The Mongolians eagles would have caught them with better accuracy.
Birds of pray should be released back into the wild not kept as pets and a very poor excuse to say they are used to control vermin

another snowflake...melting in his own emotionalism.
