that's all been covered, I wouldn't be silly enough to cage it 11 months out of 12,
but use it for personal use mostly, with a little depot work, yet get paid for it
The only issue i could see is that if you cant get out much with the bird through the season up until the three weeks you are needed to fly the bird, the bird will be very unfit, as easy as people say Harris hawks are to train and enter they take a lot of time and hard work too get fit. In my oppinion you need to be out daily to get a harris fit!
Other than that sounds like you have a great oppertunity and i hope you enjoy it!

There is a notch on the door for the leash on the one i have just not in the pic. I bought direct from them rather than off Ebay, i use the box as some permissions are a good drive away and when i have dog in back and ferrets and all my gear it just protects the hawk.
Everyone to there own mate.

After 2 or 3 seasoned hazel sticks to have a go at walking sticks ive cut plenty this year just looking for some to get me started.
I can either pay or swap for purse nets, purse net pegs, can make some one a traditional falconry block perch in return.
Thanks
