RC K9 Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 My Female Redtail caught her 11th fox squirrel of the season yesterday. Probably one of the most visually spectacular catches on squirrels I have seen, and I was lucky enough to have my good friend and fellow falconer along who recorded it.

Exodus Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 My buddy just moved here from Seattle and I guess is an Ohio falconer now. He wants to know where to find a red tail? Is marysville honda the only spot? Sent from my SM-F916U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Dorrian at the Ohio School of Falconry may be able to help him. A tree I believe. Yes WRONG!

smokin5s Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 man, that fall had to hurt like a mofo... just seeing the squirrel twitching before the guy ran over (what was he doing btw?) I get that it's a part of life but damn, I kind of feel bad for the tree rat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that it's a part of life but damn, I kind of feel bad for the tree rat. What's happening is the hawk is doing what all hawks do, (hunting) and the guy, (me) is rushing over to help prevent the hawk from taking nasty bites and to quickly dispatch said squirrel so it doesn't get eaten while it's still alive like happens out in the wild when a falconer isn't there to hasten it's passing.

zeitgeist57 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 The last time I saw someone knock a guy off a high perch and jump on him when he was down for the kill was at a dirt-floor bar in Western PA during my college years. It was funny then...and still amazing to watch now. I like the second video as well. Ryan: "Are you OK after falling out of that tree?" Ahsoka: "Oh sure...this f**king tree rat softened the landing."
