Hi All

This is my version of a well known Dutch hood makers pattern :D The hood seen here is for a Gyrkin and is a bit too big for "FalconQuester's" large Gyr/Pere Tiercel (1lb 15oz) that its on BUT its gives you an idea of the shape & style... I will also be adding in the two "eye vents" seen in this pattern that allows an air flow into the eye space. This pattern hood will be made for the large falcons Pere falcon and above.

Hi All

Been to "FalconQuestors" today and fitted out the Gyr/Pere Teircel with the correct size hood size FL19M (un-vented) :)

Hello Griff,
I am glad you enjoyed the day. Its a funny thing this semen lark I always panic even though a couple of been giving for several years. I am never confident enough not to worry.Then when they do kick in 90% is thrown away. Still not turned the Gym back into my incubation room and rearing room yet today I will do it. I suppose eggs won't eggs won't hatch in the kitchen cupboard :(
Regards
Colin
