Been a while, hope everyone's doing fine!
Met this guy (6 yo male) a couple of weeks ago, so just thought I'd share. Hope you like 'em!
Edited just to say, the damage to his cere was caused by rubbing against his aviary wall, but is getting treated.

that's a real impressive bird, great photos too.
I've been out a few times with harris hawks, amazing to watch them hunt, always fancied keeping one myself but not got the time to care for them properly. _________________

Me too Scott. I used to work ferrets to my friend`s birds. It really is something to see them hunting. _________________ YSBRYDOLI POBL, GWELLA LLEOEDD

Cheers guys!
Scott & Pete, I used to go out quite a bit too with a mate, definately something to get in to once you retire...just like dogs they seem to require a lot of your time. _________________
