One of the lads in my village keeps loads of birds of prey for displays, pest control, weddings, hunting etc and he was for ever loosing loads of them when he was a bit of a piss head.

Was always a bit random seeing him walking to the shops with a fuck off huge bird of prey on his arm, he would sometimes go for a pint with the birds too :you_crazy

apparently brides like to be photographed with these birds.

Mot sure if this is some sort of old fertility tradition or because many birds have elaborate courting rituals [1] and mate for life…

how come? as far as I can tell from researching history the old falconers would regularly imbibe “goodly store of mead and wine” and not lose track of their hawks/owls etc…..

they didn’t have radio trackers until very recently either (the valves and 100 volt battery would have weighed down the birds too much :laugh_at:)

unless the birds are in fact smarter than he is…

[1] in fact a pair of small birds (species unknown) circling each other low on the ground caused me to have to make an emergency stop today…
