Subject: [MDBirding] OFF TOPIC: An unusual twist on "falconry"


My wife found this. It is a video of para-gliders who have trained a young
Harris' Hawk to come to them while airborne. Why anyone would do this,
beats me, but it is intriguing to watch. Click on the link below to view,
though it may be a little jerky at times due to "buffering."
