Longears 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Right as I'm new I thought I'd introduce Nimbus my 6yo FHH, she is the most wonderful hawk (in my rose tinted eyes) I commited the sin of buying a 2nd hand bird because I just fell for her and haven't regretted a moment. I entered her this year on a cock Phessie And she has gone on to do well with the bunnies too, we had a great flight and a successful hunt today Quote Link to post

Longears 0 Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 she's not a huge bird really, she started the season hunting at 1lb 15oz, this is her first hunting season as she has been a pleasure bird and a breeder. Today she flew a tad heavy at 2lb 3oz, I was a bit worried about responsiveness. However she'll follow all day without being served and followed on today round the warrens until she caught the bolted bunny, she exchanges well so no difficulty with a higher weigh and she still hunted the rabbit hard.
