You are in Quebec right? Contract Dan Paradis at the Quebec falconry center. You can tell him that Jeremy Ferguson who used to work with Pandora the bald eagle from Radical Raptors told you about them.
They have falconry courses and also breed Raptors. Just be prepared for dealing with government Crap as you have to hold federal permits to possess raptors.

Stand outside with a mouse in your hand, hold it up high and wait. You'll have a falcon on your arm in no time, HA!

On a side note, when I went to Victoria, BC for my honeymoon......I had never seen so many bald eagles in one place. It was incredible, they were everywhere!....did not seem to be bothered by civilization.

Not as many down here because the early settlers found out they taste like chicken.

Yup. I'm only an hour from the ferry terminal to Victoria. In the ladner area out here and the agassiz area we get thousands.

Beautiful Jeremy. Still proud of the DV8R canopy you painted for me. I love the "RedTail" falcons, we have two at our field, one reason for my screen name. Chic

Hawks redtail is a species of hawk. They are very cool birds as well. Aggressive buggers!
