Martin, that is an extremely good idea. I however seem to always have Murphy
with me so it seems I'm always in the wrong place at the wrong time. I'm
going to be going up on Tue. early in the morning, if anyone is going, let
me know and I'll either have my cell phone on so that you can call me and
let me know where you are (I'll give you my number), and/or I'll have a
walkie talkie on me if any of you guys carry a motarolla walkie talkie on
you.
On another note, I'm constantly amazed at how quickly eagles can fly. Flying
down a falcon in level flight seems like no problem for them. A couple
falconers in Canada, long time ago, were flying a gyr and a peregrine, they
were doing a demonstration I believe and this eagle came out of no where and
started circling up under the frightned youngsters, the eagle eventually
caught up with one, caught it! But sometime happend and it was forced to let
go. Truely amazing, I would have LOVED to be in your place Martin. That it
the best stuff that could happen. I love it when raptors interact, p.
falcons chasing prairies, merlins harasing cooper's. It's sooooo cool!!!
