Young, yet Seasoned Falconer


Davis, my 8 year old brother, has no fear and just dives right in, helping Dad fly the big Gyrfalcon last Fall.

Winter Hawking Convoy


Not even Mother Nature can stop us "sick" Falconers from getting out to where the Mighty Sage Grouse winters!

Sage Grouse Hawking in Style






Had a nice Sage Grouse Hawking Trip to the deserts of Idaho for a few days with Gon Sanchez and his boys and me and my boys and Hubert Quade for a couple of the days. Killed some Grouse in nice style and had a ball being out where nobody hawks Grouse without the transportation we have! It was very nice. Grouse were abundant and in good shape, as usual, but The Gyr killed one and Dakota, the Peregrine did too. Hub's Gyr killed and so did his Passage Tundra Peregrine, (beach bird). Great Trip!
