Haggard

I want a Cooper's hawk but this one is a breeding adult, too old and too valuable to the population to keep, not to mention illegal. She trapped into my flight loft today and I will release her to make more tomorrow. She weighs nearly a pound, huge for a western Coop, and is a pure Velociraptor. Wonderful word, "haggard"...



She was not pleased

She looks huge! Either that, or you shrunk! I've been manning down a tiercel Coops, 310g off the trap. Happy holidays to all of you.
