Harris hawk

Camera Club evening at Minster Falconry, Sutton Park, York.

Harris Hawk just finishing moulting so a bit over weight and lazey so did not want to fly

A male peregrine/saker falcon

To keep her fit, she chases a lure her trainer swings around and eventually is allowed to catch it and feed on the meat within.

Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) male

Just popped in for a spot of breakfast, this Sparrowhawk had killed a Pidgeon and ate most of it before leaving the carcass for scavangers

The Eagle has with some difficulty brought the goose in to the side of the lake. I am convinced that the goose is still alive.
