Chenango Dave Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I know many of you guys liked following my posts last year on our hunting adventures with my Redtail Hawk Moka. Well here she is now with her her full red tail. Been hunting her quite a bit but we still have so much vegetation on the underbrush it makes it kinda hard. Our last years tally on rabbits was 55. So far we're up to 4 for the season this year. It'll only get better once the snow starts. Gonna try and get some better vids this year too. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kot2B Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 55 rabbits.....Why does "game hog" come to mind? If he didn't provide for himself and the bird, the other predators would have "hogged" too. I suppose you'd rather the coyotes "hog" away.

Kot2B Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Dave, great work with your bird. I've always loved watching hawks and wish I could have the same skill set you've worked on. Keep up the great work and the updates! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit season is open for 151 days and the daily limit is 6. 151 x 6 = 906 potential legal season total. He took 55! You never have anything positive to contribute Early. Did you forget to take your meds today? Miss your nap? Get booted off the AARP forums?

MACHINIST Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) 55 rabbits.....Why does "game hog" come to mind? I know lots of guys that run rabbit dogs that get that number or more yearly,He is within the illegal limits set fourth by the state so zip it.To many people on here with nothing good to bring to the plate but hate and BS.I love hearing about people that run birds for hunting.Its becoming a lost sport,Keep it up love seeing the pictures Edited November 7, 2013 by MACHINIST Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnhu Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 If I had the space and access to a mentor, I'd falcon hunt. Seems very challenging. X-Calibur Lighting Systems http://facebook.com/XCaliburLightingSystems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doewhacker Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I know of a guy that is into Falconry with a pointer, I'll see if he has a web site or something. He is Canadian, I know of him through my breeder friends/partners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I've knowed a few guy who hunt and kill a lot of rabbit....maybe not 55 rabbit, but a lot. Just a short while back, I seen two hawks hunting over a brushlot that I knew prolly had a dozen or more rabbit in it. They struck out....had to leave when three coyote approached. Must have been a wildlife hot spot: Also seen deers...two buck and 4 doe and 2 fawn. Was hoping that one of the hawk would return to tackle one of the fawn. Somethin must have happened after I gone home....found part of what appeared to be 2-3 rabbit kills in the same spot the next day. I will wait a few day and go back.

bowaholic Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Why not nuke the comments on here that give the OP a hard time? If I knew how to take things to the PM I would because some people here are only on this site to instigate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fehyd643 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 This is the Coolest. Thing. Ever. I've done a tiny bit of reading on hawking, and I know just enough to say that I have no real idea how hard it really is. My hat is off to you sir!
