2.golden eagle
3.chilian blue eagle
4.brahminy kite
its a new zealand falcon

jase.

[Tim Laycock]

Pale chanting Goshawk
Does anyone know if these are any use at all :?:
It sounds good but it certainly doesnt look the part. I have heard reports ranging from good to terrible!!!
Does anyone know what the deal is :?:
(I know its slightly off topic but then again I am very curious)

[Peregrynne]

Actually Hm is still only partially right...he got the pale chanting gos and the long crested eagle as well as the new zealand falcon..... :D

However...the others are only partially right....they are a gos and kestrel just not quiet right yet..... :wink:

[SparsTheOne]

the first one is yes.


jase.

[SparsTheOne]

jase.

[Tim Laycock]

[Hawkmaster]

Pale chanting Goshawk

Does anyone know if these are any use at all
It sounds good but it certainly doesnt look the part. I have heard reports ranging from good to terrible!!!
Does anyone know what the deal is
(I know its slightly off topic but then again I am very curious
I have flown the Pale Chanting Gos and I must say they or the one I had was the best hawk I have ever flown. She would take Collared Doves from the fist afer they break from fields or trees. Awesome Bird, I had her two seasons before releasing her. The trick is to get them as branchers and then not allow them to get into catching small fry like lizards. We once even caught a Meerkat, which was touch and go as they will team up and kick your ass as well as kill the hawk.

[Tim Laycock]

Thank you Hawkmaster. Food for thought 8)

[SparsTheOne]

not a shaheen m8.

jase.

[Hawkmaster]

Taita falcon

[Tim Laycock]

If its a hybrid then thats just silly! :rolleyes:

[SparsTheOne]

two of you have got half each so put your heads together and you will have the X.

jase.

[Peregrynne]

tatiaxbarbary or tatiaxpere maybe and the kestrel is a seychelles kestrel and the gos is a gabar's gos fyi

[Tim Laycock]

If we are going down the hybrid route this game could get very silly :lol:
There is enough diversity in raptors as they are without making a taxing game into a right ball ache!!! :rolleyes: :lol: pmsl

[SparsTheOne]
