Should that not read

The following captive bred eyases will be produced for the [glow=red:5d602e1995]2004 [/glow:5d602e1995] (2005)Breeding season.
Below is a list along with current prices in GBP.

Does anyone know what these are? Sonoran x Harris Hawks

any info on these would be great? I am looking at getting a harris this summer and have been looking for as much info as i can get over the last year and a bit

[Ian Wileman]

three sub-species of the Harris Hawk (although some people argue there are only two?). To get your head around sub-species, imagine thrushes. There are several sub-species of thrush, for example the Mistle thrush and the Song thrush. Alternatively imagine Blue-tit and Great-tit. Now imagine Parabuteo unicinctus unicinctus, Parabuteo unicinctus harrisi and Parabuteo unicinctus superior (the dodgy one?). I believe the Sonoran harris (if I remember rightly), is P.u. unicinctus. I imagine therefore that a Sonaran x harris is a sub-species mating between this one and P.u.harrisi? I may be wrong, and knowing this place if I am, someone will put me straight on it.......

[TimberDog]

Have a look on the link pictures of birds

[Kessy]

I was thinking about the subspecies also... We shall see what Craig says ;)
Why is the 'supertior' one dodgy?

[Ian Wileman]

Some say that the 'superior' sub-species is the largest of the Harris hawks, whilst others say the 'superior' is simply where the bird comes from. Whether this is correct remains to be seen. I am also very sceptical about anyone who claims to have 'pure' sub-species. Harris have been bred like budgies over the past couple of decades, with more and more people crossing 'big' birds, regardless of their sub-species. I may be wrong, but I feel you would have a real hard time finding birds of pure origin.

[Kessy]

This is getting more and more interesting...
According to my book (Ferguson-Lee's "Raptors of the World") there are three races, of which the northern two differ very little in size and appearance:
- P. u. unicinctus, weights average 700g
- P. u. harrisi, weights M: 550-877g, F: 825-1200g
The 'unicinctus' ssp comes generally from Central and South America, white the 'harrisi' ssp comes from the Central America/Mexico due north.

You think that the 'Sonoran' wold be the second northern race, not mentioned by name in the book? You have practical knowledge, what are the wights of 'Sonorans' and 'Superiors'?

The picture on the website of the Spars on Kills are off my female I was flying last year and the beggining of this year, Craig asked me for some for the website so I fired some over to him, the one on the Maggie and the one of the Collard Dove, One of Craigs pairs he breeds from was also a pair he brought off me!! I know the history of that pair and they're cracking birds, In one season she produced 3 clutches for me! 7 In the first then a 6 then a 5, the last 5 was all infertile due to the male coming out of condition, this pair produce some cracking stock of which the mother was the best Magpie hawk I ever owned, the Musket I also flew at Larks across the stubble fields...

mate i spoke to alot of breeders lately for harris hawks

their price range seems to be around 350 to 375 mark for femake harris hawks yours are 550, how come mate

most expensive ive seen so far

[Falconry Equipment International]

If you think that's pricet speak to folk like Martin Jones . A rhetorical question I wish to make , is that do you think I am being stupid when I know I can get a specific species of hawk/ falcon fors a specific price, then why am I prepared to apy somtimes more tahn double the going rate for certain strains/ bloodlines. i do hope you can read thro the lines!

[Raseni]

good hawks are expensive, that a fact.

cheers,
Rasmus

[North East Harris Hawker]

the only way i know of to be sure of geting a pure sorran or superior sub-species would be to import young birds bred from passage birds in the country of origin

and by the time you have all the papper work and fees not to mention the air fare is it realy worth it

mind you having said that if anyone does it and breeds them put me down for one lol


Andy.........

both my parent birds are second generation captive bred.
both birds' grandparents were wild captures.
If i compare the offspring of my birds with some of the other in bred garbage thats floating around the difference is shockingly obvious.
if "breeders" choose to breed with these runts and bring them up on d.o.c's thats up to them but there will be problems down the line..
it will put a divide on those who have good stock and those who have rubbish.
bought the best stock i could find, i drove to lands end to get my bird :shock: and it came at a price, but you get what you pay for and thats a fact.
"The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of price, you buy cheap, you buy twice" so true

[Hercocan]
