The Harris hawk is one of my favorite birds of prey. The hawk is also a beautiful and strong raptor.

Thank you James both for your work with these amazing Hawks and for making this brilliant and informative documentary on them. I first saw your film on TV here in the UK about 20+ years ago, so to find it here again on youtube was icing on the cake. Having been honoured to keep and hunt with a couple of Harris Hawks, I can say they truly are amazing birds. From justting in my garage, "manning" a young Harris for the many long hours it takes until they give up the threat display and start to take a little more interest in you, with those piercing eyes checking you out all over. To taking them out into the field to train together, and finally go out and work with him/her to form that hunting partnership, it truly has been one of the highlights of my life. There are those special little moments that stay with you, such as the first time he/she learns to "spill the air" with his/her wings, or hovering over a tussock of grass until the rabbit breaks cover, and then there's also the heart-stopping moments when their fearless doggedness puts them at risk. Such as folding Her wings, turning, and plummeting from 50-60feet on the soar, down into a crack between the rocks that you'd be lucky to get your fist between. It nearly killed me in my panic and rush down the side of the quarry to check she was ok. I slipped and fell 18-20feet, twisted/turned in the air and landed on my back on top of a huge slab of stone the size of a pick-up truck, which fortunately was flat-topped. Once I'd got my breath back, I got up very gingerly and peered down to see Her sitting atop the rocks where the rabbit had took cover, waiting eagerly AND "wagging her tail"...in that inimitiable Harris Hawk way, I did chuckle despite the pain, lol. Memories which I will cherish for as long as I live, so thanks again James as it was your film that was key in my decision of which species of Hawk to have, to pursue what has to be, imo, one of the most rewarding partnerships a Man/Woman can have with any animal. kindest regards, Blaer(aka Paz) PS. Only wish youtube had recommended it the day you uploaded, it would've been the best birthday present ever !!!

@SuperChoronzon4 жыл бұрын
Yep, they're awesome AF too, I had a friend who kept a large female Red-tail, Mitzi, iirc pretty sure her hunting-weight was just under 4-pounds. He hunted with her for at least 10 years until one day, something had gotten her attention. She was following something which he couldn't quite see, for at least 10-15mins and he was struggling to keep up with her. Once she finally came to a stop, he caught up and saw what she was zoning in on.... a Fox !!! He recalled her, which spooked the Fox and pissed her off no-end, but as he said, " he wasn't going to risk his or hers' health", as all he had on him that day was a little 2-inch blade, lol. Red-tails are known for their aggression, it's one bird that CAN and DOES punch above its' weight.

This is simply amazing. I feed birds and occasionally will get a glimpse of a kestrel or coopers hawk swooping in for a kill. A glimpse is all I normally get as they are so fast. I would love to see these Harris's Hawks doing their things. Guess I'll have to go south soon. Thanks for uploading.

@salsalable4 жыл бұрын
they didnt tranq it. birds arent nearly as difficult a some people think and often putting a sheet, or a sock, over its head is enough to keep the bird calm for medical procedures, tagging, and more. they just used a falconers net to temproarily imcapacitate the talons until the could cet something over its eyes. also, by understanding the mating systems of these birds, they can also understand the social structures and how the animals reduce inbreeding through kin selection and whether the birds are looking for a certain trait in a partner.
