Jim Ince gives me a female Red-tail.


A few weeks ago I had to go to Denver. My friend and sponsor took Cisco for me and obviously lost him. Of course Jim didn't mention it, but he did a great job of replacing Cisco. The replacement looks identical.  Even has a transmitter cap on the right leg and identical tail bell. How do I know this isn't Cisco? Cisco was never over 1040 grams in fifteen years.... case closed.

I took the new hawk out this morning at 1211 grams. (S)he chased a squirrel, and though balky I took the hawk home. I'll keep her.


Jim and his Merlin yesterday
