It would be very interesting for us here in ireland and anyone who hunts with them around the world to get some insight of Harris's in their natural environment, Dont worry, your english is very good, so please join forum and keep posting, Thanks, Tom Please tell us more about watching Harris Hawks in the wild.

You're absolutly righ: to enjoy a harris hawk you must Know, at leats, the fundamental knowlege of cetreria; if not, will be a nigthmare. several years ago, i had a adult Harris hawk male, he was a really a bundle of nerves, more than a sparrow hawk. so when my nerves broke down i decided to set it free. in spite of living in the most populated place in the world, mexico city, near to my house (yes, just a few steps) there is a park where i can see a family of harris hawks hunting like you describe. its really great.
