Neighbor came over and asked if I could build him a perch he could step into the ground. We whipped this up using scrap I had laying around. He will paint it, and wrap it with cord (for the falcon's talons). He said he will get me some pictures in a few days. I will see if I can upload them when I get them.The Lord has declared, "This is my work and my glory--to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man" Moses 1:39Link: My name is John, and I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.-- ColdCreekWorks.com --
Reply:All I can think of when I see that bird is the State Farm commercial where the woman asks why the insurance guy bought her husband a falcon... .No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth! Ronald Reagan

Reply:Nice work, DAMN! that bird looks pissed off!! I love my little parrot to death, but screw having a falcon.

Reply:So Fish and Game has rules for gun hunters, bow hunters, rod hunters, net hunters but I wonder if there are any rules against hunting with a falcon. I know many owners have trained theirs to retrieve birds and rabbits.

Reply:Cool. Couple weeks ago, I got to watch a falcon reduce the rabbit population by one. Very cool to watch...(Retired) Professional firefighter, amateur everything else I try to do...Oh yeah: Go Big Red! (You know: one of the 12 members of the Big 10 cuz we left the 10 members of the Big 12...)

Reply:Nice. What kind of falcon? I don't know much about falcon perches, but does the ring for the jess leash need to be moveable? Leash looks long enough that the ring could be fixed in place to avoid wearing down the paint.
