Post office cocked up the delivery on telem didnt turn up. So took Stella out for her usual flying, training etc... Stella was on the creonce following on brilliant at about 50yards then land on a post and do it again, on the last one the line got snagged up on barbed wire and stopped her sharpish. Dad loves the hawk more than me so he went mental and uncliped creonce and took off the swivel and bobed a set of field jesses on and cast her off free with me shouting dont do it. She only went around 30 yard and sat at the top of a tree we had a good few flights on the dummy bunny and to the glove

Thanks mate, things seem to be moving along smoothly dont think were doing to much wrong as Stella learns we do. Took her out for 2 and half hours about 6ish, didnt feed or fly her so expecting a good responce tomorrow

Bit of an update, bin out with her walking all over the place getting her use to traffic, trains anything that moves really.The wind has dropped a bit over the last couple of days so we've had her on the creance she 's coming about 40 feet at the moment, still bin nosey and not putting 100% into it but doing very well shes at 2.3 dropping her a bit more im sure she will respond better still. Shes a very placid bird with an excellent temprement,stella loves to come in the house watch telly then stand on one leg and go to sleep. lol. not going to feed her today then fly her tomorrow.

A little update, took her into the field for a hour again, showed her some horses but she was bating on the glove abit when walking couldnt seem to balance. Then we saw a lurcher she didnt like it at all lol screaming at it Got her home and offerd her a chick she had a couple of mouth fulls then moved the glove back for a jump. She stepped onto it the first couple of times then moved it back abit more so she had to jump. After about 5 mins of wagling and tapping of the glove she jumped for the first time Then let her have a mouth full put her back on and repeated it again and again untill
