I wish I could learn to make these bells. I have spent 15 years in making things there is nothing like Bells they are so very intricate detailed and beautiful.
In1986 and I was living in Utah. A falconer named Steve Chindgren came to my school and did a presentation with some birds of prey. I remember seeing the Redtail fly up to a structure in the gym and then return to the glove, and from then I was hooked! I had my parents drive me to Clearfield, Davis and Kaysville looking for falconry books. That was the year that my love for falconry began. Thanks, Steve! I hope to meet you one day.
Very well done. I studied Moran's hoods closely prior to my own hood making journey. I've been making dutch hoods for almost 40 years, and the process never gets old.
Excellent Lecture🎓 on the Arab/Middle Eastern Falconry Tradition/Lifestyle!👍 Us Falconer's from the Western Hemisphere,🗺 can learn, benefit and be inspired by their Mastery of Falconry and attempt to elevate our own Mastery of Falconry and get the best from our Birds! ✊🦅 Long live the Lifestyle/Art/Science and Passion, that we know as Falconry!🦅 Happy Hawking!🦅🕊
Arguably the best presentation ever made at the AoF and on a topic seldom addressed today. That book is in my personal library. (My parents were much more generous than yours, but they made me work for other youthful goals)
Awesome presentation as usual, Lauren. I have a question for you if you can answer. What % of the time are hunting expeditions one day long versus mulit-day hunts in Western Mongolia. I assume that depends on the hunting agenda and starting point from the hunting grounds....?
Yes I have a question Does the archives House Ed Harrison raptor and egg collection with all the cool study skins. I grow up in Hollywood and spent a lot of time there when I was younger and met many a great Ornithologist there
Thanks for the question! The Peregrine Fund holds a large egg collection and study skin collection which may include some of Ed's specimens but I gather Ed's collection was a foundational part of the Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology's bird collections. We are working with The Peregrine Fund staff to eventually help bring this into an online searchable format.

Para archivo de Cetrería de la IAF. A ver si pueden traducir lo que este gran cetrero puede aportar sobre su biblioteca en un español un poco mejor que el de la traducción automática
A worthy tribute to the extraordinary tome "The Art of Falconry" by King👑 Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, aka: Stupor Mundi- "the Wonder of the World"! This magnificent book compiled so many Centuries ago, has and will continue to inspire and instruct present and future Falconers and Falconry enthusiasts for generations to come. I myself included! Long live the Sport/Art/Lifestyle known as Falconry!🦅🕊
A wonderful talk from, who I consider, the greatest falconer of all time - Mr. Steve Chindgren. Thanks for doing such a great job, Steve. Well done my friend!
I myself went through this whole evolution of telemetry thank you for the video and thanks for writing the article about the history of California falconer’s
I knew Fran when she and I attended some meetings of the Raptor Research Foundation and NAFA meets at the same over several years. Then, once, years ago when I lived in NE Oklahoma, she contacted me and asked to stay overnight at my home on a trip she was making to visit a Central American Native tribe. To host her was even more fascinating than when I sat next to the daughter of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward's daughter, Nell Newman, at a NAFA banquet. At least I was less tongue-tied with Fran.
This was the fastest 22 minutes ever! What I loved the most about this presentation, were the photos and video of her stay in Mongolia. Being both a falconer and anthropologist, she has a unique perspective on the ancient sport of kings. Thanks for posting this. Great stuff. 👍
Thanks for your interest. I'm sure Dani would love to hear from you. You can reach her on our Facebook and Instagram pages. Facebook - facebook.com/archivesoffalconry Instagram - instagram.com/archivesoffalconry
Awesome! I'll have to get to the Archives some day and I look forward to more of your videos. I'm in Massachusetts and I just started looking for this season's red-tail.
Thanks so much! We'd love to have you visit. We aim to get a couple of new videos out every month. It's a great way to share. If you haven't already, check us out on Facebook and Instagram. Dani and John share lots of excellent non-video content all the time.
