Meet Joe Hawk, My New Hunting Partner

Joe is a wild caught passage Harris Hawk from South Texas, he has hunted one season with a falconer friend of mine and I will be hunting him this year. He is already calming down and sitting on a perch in the living room watching all that goes on in the house. He lets the cat know who is boss by screaming and raising his wings when the cat walks in the room. Hopefully he will soon accept the cat and not try to eat him. I am looking forward to his retraining and hunting him in the near future. Here are some pictures of Joe in a pose and hunting last year. Good hunting, Wild Ed
