Fraptorday: Weekly Raptor

Shelby, our male Harris’s hawk, perches on our van door before a hunt. We have him set up with some surveyor’s tape here to make him more plainly something that is not a prey bird, so hopefully if we do encounter a gun hunter they will get a clue that Shelby isn’t a pheasant, duck, or other game.

I consider this weblog an extension of my living room in cyberspace. If you enter a comment that I wouldn't find acceptable in my living room, I'm likely to boot both you and your comment. Fair warning, OK?
Because of the above, I exercise prior restraint. I approve comments when I can get online. Currently, this does not include weekday working hours. Be patient; if you have entered a reasonable comment, it will be approved as I get the opportunity to see it.
For a lightly moderated forum on evolution/creation issues, please visit After the Bar Closes at AntiEvolution.org. This web bulletin board picks up where the Fidonet Evolution Echo (founded by me in 1991) left off.
