wag 13 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 i would go for a female harris hawk for a first bird, but what will be your main quarry? ,also a redtail can be a bit dodgey for a first bird ,but at the end of the day its up to you, read through some of the threads on here to see if that helps your decision regards wag Quote Link to post
D.A.Z 0 Posted December 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) main quarry on the land i have (nans farm)which i was on today is rabbit,although the hh with me today had a go at a tree rat, 2 flights on2 cock phesents and a few flights on rabbit,also i have a duck pit on the land which has not been feed for awhile but you still get the odd one.and all the other stuff you would expect to see crow magpie etc. i should get surounding farms when i have bird.
