Out of interest how many of you would be prepared to tolerate a hawk that calls/screms..

Whether it be all the time

Only when the bird sees you

Only out in field

Transported etc etc....even if the hawk was a world beater how much would you tolerate..

Depends on overall hunting ability, out and out screamer no chance too much for neighbours to take, however the odd murmur etc no problem to me personally, think if ya take one on like that ya have a chance of correcting the behaviour by breaking certain associations maybe start next moult

I don't mind it really

All my falcons are imprints so noise comes with it I'm afraid. No nabours for me to worry about a lot of my imprints are quite in the feild!

 

theres imprints and 'imprints' done be someone like yourself all the benefits are there to be had, done be some numpty wanting and easy gos or spar , then its a tragedy for the bird and any one living near by lol something I would love to ry to do one day however, likely be a goshawk male

It's an interesting point, if you have no neighbours to worry about, it would probably be more tolerable or if the situation was different.

My first gos didn't make a sound till mid December of 1st season, up to then he had gone like a dream & exceeded my expectations, I came home from work one day & heard this high pitched call, I thought it was a seagull lol never heard him before.....the noise never became an issue cos it was occasional & never in the field....but if it was regular....what would I have done? He was going so well I would have just put up with it I suppose....& tried to find a solution
