Harris hawks and stoats

[Big dode 67]

Hi everyone was out today with my male harris hawk he was following on and he tucked his wings in and went across a pond through a wood in then wing over.I heard a scream i was expecting to see him on a rabbit once i got there he was sitting happily with his prize a stoat he had it under control with a foot around its head no bites,thank god so here comes the question how do u get rid off the smell my vest has got covered my new stanislav glove and telemetry case even the bird is stinking im sure im not the only one this has happened too ??

Regards george

Thanks mate wouldn’t target them intentionally but the bird must off thought it was fair game

Good photo mate, catch is a catch no matter what mate, stoates and weasels have a good bite on them so it's good he got hold of head, years ago walking home from school we saw a cat come of worse trying to get a stoat, it was striking at cat and believe that cat couldn't wait to get away, for there size they pack a punch.
