Shreks Gone

[AlexB]

Sadly a few minutes ago Shrek died after seeing a vet they tried their hardest to sort him. Not sure yet what caused this. Don't think I want him cut apart to find out.

I am sorry for letting the little fella down. He was my first Gos and with all the problems with him then coming good I will miss him.

Thanks for all the help and good wishes I have had for him.

I am sure there is a tiercel out there with my name on it just got to get up and find it now. Got the wife telling me as well. Will be hard after all the hours I have put in with Shrek. He was a little cracker.

Alex, you have nothing to apologise for livestock is always deadstock its just the duration that you cant guess, my advise is as others, get yourself back in the saddle ASAP if for no other reason than there is breathing corvids out there that require slaying. a hard few days ahead but you will get through it. All the best Steve.

[HarrisHawk23]

[JoHo]

Hi Alex,

I am really sorry for you loss mate. Isla our HH went missing a few days ago but we found her again. Thats was bad enough but to lose one for good can't imagine. Sorry, again.


PS. If you want me to hang on to that air rifle a while longer, I will be happy to hold it for you.

Johann

[AlexB]

Wife has given me an ultamatim, find a bird soon or a good solicitor. I am a miserable tw*t, without one. I am seriously looking for a new gos.

Once again thanks for the kind words guys.

Alex

Its obviously your choice but you really should have a PM done for peace of mind. I lost my male just before the season started and had flown him for 7 seasons. He was the best bird I have flown and the most I have ever bonded with a bird. It was a painful decision but I still had to find out the cause.

Good luck,
Brian

[AlexB]

Thanks for all the messages guys.

i am going to collect a pup from the uk so it will keep me busy. If anyone knows of a Gos for sale drop me a pm with details. If i can collect one this weekend all the better.

Times a great healer but I think hunting would be better.

Also you can text me on 004915224177592.

Firstly, I'm really sorry to hear of your loss.

Secondly I know two chaps locally who have Gosses up on the IBR site. Ones a mature German (but I think he might have decided not to sell) the others a young Finn Female.

I have decided to get the Shrek checked to find out the cause of his death. Just want to know for sure.

Trying really hard now to find a bird, would consider having a harris or other for the rest of the season. Just want to get hunting again.

Thanks for all the replies guys it mean a lot.

Sorry to hear about your loss Alex! I may know someone in Hungary that may have a bird for you, I will ask around.

My dad is in Hungary on a field meet now so when I speak to him I will get him to find out for me.

Regard

Tom

i am a young falconer. i have had pets die but a bop is no pet, more of a way of life. i am very sorry to hear about shrek

[Finnish]

Sorry for your loss mate...

[AlexB]

Been doing a lot of thinking today while driving around the UK, I might have only had Shrek a few months but he has taught me so many lessons, I can't wait to put these into practice with future birds. As has been said others will be compared to him but there will never be another (I hope in some ways). He tested my patience in so many ways but when he came good he was something special.

Thanks for all the kind words.

sorry for your loss,it dose get better and if you get an other bird it gets better quicker. i know my mail 3/4 gyr/saker was killed by a car while we where out flying just a few short weeks a go,got new falcon now it all starts again and she is doing great. best of luck good hunting.

[Zarafia]

I am so very sorry to hear that you lost your little guy. I just got back at 5am this morning from picking up my new saker. I waited a whole year after my little imprint american kestrel was murdered by a tabby cat last fall to get a new bird. I don't reccomended waiting. But I hope that you do have the post mortem done so that you know there is nothing lingering that might affect a new bird. Good luck with finding the new guy and keep us posted.
