    Saw a guy with a Harris Hawk hunting next the Greystones Inn Last evening. Fantastic looking creature. Like a small eagle. I wonder if he catches rats there or what?

    I know the man you are talking about, I would say he goes down there to fly him, probably not hunting him down there.

    Was out running this evening and saw this pair just at the entrance to the IDA site. Beautiful looking bird. I was hoping he'd still be there when I was on my way back as I wanted to stop for a look.
