  • In this video i sit down and read through some of your comments and questions. There is a great mix of just utterly bizarre comments as well as some genuine questions that I enjoy answering for you. Facts about Lanner Falcons, pros and cons of owning an owl, do falconers keep their birds hungry, will a hawk retrieve prey for the falconer, and more! If you enjoy this and would like to see me reading some more of your comments and questions then let me know, and make sure to subscribe!

    I'm so sorry you've received such hate and negativity over time.. you're putting yourself out, giving amazing and factually correct information inspiring the next generation of falconers.. I applaud you and encourage you.. plus you and your fiancee are ridiculously good looking!

    I just saw one of your videos with Kit. She's soooo gorgeous.
    All your birds are incredible.
    I can see why these birds can become a lifelong passion.
    They are awesome creatures. And I use the word awesome quite literally. I am in awe of them 😍😍😍
    Edit.... I've just watched to the end of the video and you mentioned Kit... I watched the video and am now sat here crying. You shared so much together and she was with you right up until the end. You couldn't have done any more. My heart breaks for you. She was so very special and you have those beautiful memories. She's at peace and I'm so very sorry for your loss. Your heartbreak and your absolute love for her was so very obvious in that video.
    She was with you and you were there for her, you were together at the end, please take comfort from that.
    I've lost loved ones and i wasn't there at the end, or the end was less peaceful.
    She slipped away gently and that is something to hold on to. God bless her. 🙏🏻 And you 💔

    Sounds like the Buzzard, dead body comment probably came from an American. We use Buzzard synonymously with Vulture. So he thinks you're flying Vultures out there. LMAO. Some folks are so easily confused. All he has to do is take one look at your bird and know it's NOT a Vulture.😂And by the way, I love your videos and your birds are gorgeous!

    I think the buzzards question at 10:22 was probably related to terminology. The term "buzzard" in North America sometimes refers to vultures. So I think that's where their question (joke maybe?) comes from, about using buzzards to clean up dead bodies.
    And yes, it's silly that "buzzard" has that connotation here. Who knows, maybe the new common names for birds (getting rid of eponyms) will fix up some of the incorrect terms too. Ben Woodruff talks about this a bit in his new video: czcams.com/video/nTjo9LxJv9U/video.htmlsi=F7H29y8bhy4lAnAP&t=497.
    Thanks for this video and all your others. You explain raptors very well.
