Thanks so Much Orr Family for this Video and so awesome to see your work Pay off . Enjoy the Time with your Birds in Hunting with Them. Peace Be With You.
Great footage. I always heard gyrs were a pain in the ass to train because they didn't like to go up high or really stoop, that they just chased like a saker. But batz looks perfect the way he nailed that duck, maybe the little peregrine blood he has is making the difference.
Thanks Everett! It was my first time filming Falcons so the whole training experience was completely new to me. It was quite the tedious process building Baz's skills up enough to finally nail a wild duck at the end. Wish I would have kept track of how many days we failed our mission lol :) ~Sean
Baz is quite the falcon! I think I remember us clocking him at around 150+ mph on one of his dives using the GPS. He does eat the majority of the feathers! ~Sean
There's a special falconer license, to get that licence you have to go through the training program and be paired with a master falconer who will become your mentor.
Is it legal in California to fly a bird of prey to a 'baggie'? You know? That pigeon with a few tail feathers removed to make it easier for the falcon? That legit where you are?
@@kennypryde4235 Bagging is a big part of falconry, and since our regulations were written mainly by falconers, they know how important bagging is. It's no different than using live bait when fishing.
