Fraptorday: Weekly Raptor

This week, I’ve got a fresh picture taken at this morning’s exercise with Shelby and Rusty. Shelby here is making contact with the lure swung by Diane.

We’re working on having Rusty and Shelby work with the lure a bit more like falcons than like hawks. Diane tries to work the lure such that they miss on the first pass, but are allowed to catch the lure if they turn in midair and try again for it.

Share and Enjoy:
