It's been 50 years since I first became a falconer, time flies, wish we'd had digital cameras back when but then again personal computers weren't available, or the internet, or cell phones left alone smart phones, no telemetry, or on line falconry stores. Falconry meets were held in the field, you know, where the game is, imagine that! Everyone camped out, bon fires at night, cook outs, a wonderful time to be a falconer, I'm afraid those days are long gone, younger falconers have no idea what they're missing. I imagine old falconers of the time most likely said the same about us!. Can't think of a better way to spends one's life.
