Falcons & Fishing: More Quail
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2010/08/more-quail.html
Friday, August 6, 2010. Claire is still doing great on the planted quail and very soon I'll be taking her out to a dog training club near Lake Kissimmee where they have a pen of really good quality Bob Whites for training. How are you getting her to stop chasing the quail once its flushed? August 11, 2010 at 9:42 AM. Shes only 5 months adn right now Im just using a check cord. The quail Im using are terrible fliers and shed catch it before it hit the ground. August 11, 2010 at 10:52 AM. Claire, 5 months.

Falcons & Fishing: May 2010
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. A few weeks ago we learned that our chocolate lab Duncan has cancer. We discovered this after he nearly bled to death after a tumor ruptured in his spleen. His spleen was removed and biopsied and it wasn't good news. He's undergoing chemotheropy now, but even with that his prognosis is 6 - 12 months. So we thought it was time for a new pup.

http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 16, 2009. I spoke at a FWC commission meeting yesterday when a draft management plan was presented to FWC commissioners. The draft plan was approved by the commissioners with very little input. A final plan will now be drafted and hopefully approved at the June meeting. I hope we'll be trapping peregrines in 2010. For immediate release: April 15, 2009Contact:. Patricia Behnke, 850-251-2130. The world’s fastest bird is also resilient. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Thursday, January 28, 2010. The birds flew good this weekend. Here's a video with some clips of Doc's flights. Links to this post. Saturday, January 16, 2010. A Different Kind of Flying. I went up for my first ride in a small plane last weekend. Jonathan Millican is a pilot and we rented a plane for a short flight to do some scouting for snipe hunting spots. We found lots of likely spots. Links to this post. Saturday, January 9, 2010. Links to this post. Thursday, January 7, 2010. When I got back to the ...

Falcons & Fishing: Claire's APLA Hunt Test
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2011/04/claires-apla-hunt-test.html
Wednesday, April 6, 2011. Claire's APLA Hunt Test. The judges decided to send her on to the water portion. They thought that she did great, had a nice natural point but stated that she would have to run the water portion perfectly or risk a cooperation score below a 2 which would fail her. Her issue was still there and she wanted to play with the duck and wouldn't bring it all the way in. She failed Cooperation and failed the test. Oh well. Anyway, here is her run.

Falcons & Fishing: February 2010
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 22, 2010. Snipe season has come to an end and birds have been tough to find so I hung up my glove for the season. But, what a season it was. My good friend Joel Volpi, from GA, joined me for the last few hunts and as usual Doc flew great. Doc caught his first snipe on Dec 6th and in the following 50 hunts he went on to take 32 head of game, including: 24 snipe, 2 doves, 1 Bob White quail and 5 Misc birds. I'm looking forward to a speedy molt and another great season. Links to this post.

Falcons & Fishing: Claire's Introduction to Quail
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2010/07/claires-introduction-to-quail.html
Thursday, July 22, 2010. Claire's Introduction to Quail. Last weekend Claire met her first few planted quail. She did great. I put a bird out in the field and hooked Claire up to a check cord to keep her from being able to catch the bird. We started 100 yards down wind and started working towards the bird. Here's a short video we shot of her second quail. Thats awesome. Ive never had a pointing dog, but seeing it happen so naturally is so cool. I cant wait to hear what happens this falconry season.

Falcons & Fishing: November 2009
http://ericedw.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 14, 2009. Well, we're almost hunting. Doc did great today, going up 1,000' to the bait on the kite. Tomorrow the plan is to send him back up 1,000' to a target on the kite and release a pigeon under him. This will be our first real "flushed game". If he does well with this then we'll be looking for wild game. Doc's weight is now up to 450grams and he is flying very strong, he wasn't even breathing hard today and he had quite a climb into a 10mph wind. Links to this post. For me it̵...
