Im forced to ask folks.

Vultures, at the falconry fair, what the fark was going on :?:

I mean cummon it was a falconry fair for falconers not a show and tell for the local scout troupe.
To me it was just one or two places wasted on the weathering.
I dont know how you guys feel about it :?:

Bubo if you like vulturs you have to visit a center in germany I work for, the owner has got the nick name Vulturdude. He loves them to bits and is very good at training them. He has got lots of them. The best one is his Condor.

Hi bubo,
if you want to go there this year tell me, if it matches with my stay in germany I will come with you and show you around and do some translation if nessesary. The Kondor is so cool he iss called Santiago. It took a long time until they got him flying coz they do not have the thermal drafts as in the anden but coz they are so experienced they finaly got him flying. They trough him out of a helium ballon about 3000 meter high and he soared down to the groung. Know he is the many part of the show. They also fly a cast of 5-7 HH, sometimes by just two falconers. I allways did that and it was great fun, but without bells you would have two HH on you, one on each fist and one of them without glove.

You will love it
