Hi All

Hawking partner couldnt make it today ....so no pointer .... just "turf kicking"........ 150ftish stoop in and up the tail pipe of a rising Partridge (100ish yards in front) ....in the "strong" wind (helped)..... that'll do :)

**** Addition: He is up a full Ounce and a 1/2 @ 1lb 6 3/4oz ..... got his strength back and flying a bit wide.... but tactics today were spot .... up.... and run.... worked a treat.

Sorry about the pic ... wife took it:roll:

Glad that Hamish is recovering, he was the last one I bred from
the "Wee man" as you know, Gifting you him gave me a lot of pleasure
after your last season.
The best selected progeny from that pair are now approaching breeding
age and reside here and Colin Passes premises,
Wee man although a son of "PJ", Mark Tuckers famous 1lb-10oz tiercel
lacked the size of his father so was restricted to partridge and grouse.
Flown for five seasons here until he bred, he has produced some really
nice eyasses.
Hope he carries on producing them, must say I have regrets on parting with him.

Regards Mike.

Nice to see you are sticking at it Griff and well done, Hopefully as Mike says their are Several off Spring coming up to breeding age it will be great to see
Mikes hard work and goals come to ahead. Pic is Hammish'es Sister she is now coming up 3 and she looks good for the coming breeding season.
Regards
Colin
