    We started working on a weathering yard! Going to model it after yours with the chain link on the outside with green plastic poultry netting on the inside to protect feathers.

      Hello! 2022 has been a rough year, losing 2 family members, but I am back in the game for 2023. I have chain link for the base of my mews, which I am building under my deck which is basically the roof of the mews. My house roof overhangs a good portion of my deck for weather protection. I bought a huge roll of vinyl coated 1/2 inch by half inch hardware cloth to cover the gaps between where the top of the 6ft kennel is the underside of my deck. I just want to make sure before I get too far ahead that the 1/2 inch by 1/2 inch vinyl coated hardware cloth is not going to risk a claw getting trapped if the bird is loose or becomes untethered. Thank you!

    Hey i got 2 kestrels and a harris hawk and im still in the beginner side of falconry and what you say is right! Once the harris hawk gets his eyes locked on a mice or anything he straight up goes for the kill its very awesome! also my two kestrels are only abt 2 months old! ❤

    • @WildlifeCommandCenter
      @WildlifeCommandCenter  2 месяца назад +1

      @momocandace,
      That's fantastic! Welcome to the incredible world of falconry. It sounds like you're off to a great start with your Harris Hawk and those young Kestrels. The determination and precision of a Harris Hawk in action are truly awe-inspiring. They're known for their intelligence and teamwork in nature, which makes them a popular choice among falconers.
      It’s also adorable to hear about your young Kestrels. The early months are so crucial for bonding and training. Keep nurturing that connection, and you’ll continue to see amazing growth and skills from them. Be sure to soak in all the unique behaviors and quirks they display as they mature.
      If you ever need tips, feel free to check out our RUclips channel at the Wildlife Command Center. We often share insights and educational content about birds of prey that might be helpful as you continue your falconry journey.
      Link: [Wildlife Command Center RUclips Channel](ruclips.net/channel/UCx4UeydCJfXHnV-wtF80TEQ).
      Keep flying high, and thanks for being a part of the falconry community!
      Best wishes,
      Bare Hands Beran 🦅

    • @WildlifeCommandCenter
      @WildlifeCommandCenter  4 месяца назад +2

      @ThatSocratesguy, ah, the art of the stoic wildlife rescuer! 🌟 At 0:40, it’s all about keeping cool under pressure-or should I say, under bite? The trick is a combination of adrenaline, a thick skin (figuratively and sometimes literally!), and a deep commitment to not startling the animal any further. We aim to keep calm so the animals can stay calm too.
      Remember, it’s all in a day’s work here at Wildlife Command Center. Handling wildlife, even when they get a bit bitey, is part of helping them. Thanks for your amazement, and don't try this at home-leave it to the semi-professionals in thick gloves!
      Keep watching for more wild adventures where we keep our cool so the animals can too! 😂🦝

    Their was a Falconer in Lousianna off the grid who only fl.ew GH Owls , took a respectable head count. A select group of falconers, (he was on the radar) who visited saw this first hand. But he refused to say how he trained them. I think the knowledge of hunting Owl, manning, training, and entering is less desirable than falcons or hawks, eagles.
