I know exactly what you mean, It#s either kestrel for a knave, or if it's more for young kids then i remember one that involved a bus or camper van or such and peregrin falcons.

Its called good husbandry mate who told ya they are to much hassle yes at first but it becomes second nature after a while. if your bird sits up a tree for more than a few minutes after you ve called it down it through your own errors not the birds lol ive had to leave a bird out over night and go back at first light to reclaim it because of it but i was determind to get her back home safe and i did !! Wot u after remember is its still a wild animal that is tamed by food and a relationship with keeper that keeps them coming back to u if u dont put enough prey undernieth it they can and will just fuck off but i enjoy the sport and take it seriously enough to spend 2g on a goshawk
jesus i used to have a kestral goshawk and a buzzard up until like 15 used to live in the sticks was always out with the lure :)

Time is the most important factor imo with keeping a bop but if u love it as much as i do u av to make sacrifices lets just say the misses knows she comes after my birds lol jk they come as equals i say
