Our average rain fall is abot 30" The west coast of the south Island gets about 3 to 6 mtrs thats 36 to 72 inchs . They star t to dry off if there is no rain for two weeks .

    Larry, I am pleased that I asked. What a superb blog and the video is great. You must be unique in releasing your birds back into the wild. I know that the merlin which was only flown by `ladies` was `whistled down the wind` at the end of the season as it was considered too much trouble to keep them over until the next season, but a fully trained bird had so much time invested in the training that they were kept in the mews until they were too old to hunt. Do you get hawks migrating through Idaho? We get the beginnings o f the great migration across Europe here in the South of England. Just for a few days each year there are goshawks and sparrowhawks and the occasional peregrine everywhere you look. Then unfortunately they fly across Europe where the French and the Italians in particular shoot at everything that moves and slaughter small birds,including singing birds, by the thousand. One of the unforeseen consequences of motorways is that hawks have taken up residence in the grass strips between the carriageways and can often be seen hunting. Of course they are not disturbed by pedestrians as the traffic stops anyone getting on to the central reservation and they have learned to live with the traffic. Salisbury Plain, near my home, which is to a great extent put aside for army ranges is used by falconers. It is mainly treeless so the bigwinged falcons are favoured and again because civilian access is limited the bird life has flourished. Thanks again.

    Thank you Larry for all your videos, including the one with Jessie. When I was younger I was fascinated with the idea of falconry. Good to see someone who actually does it. As far as the music, your choices in instrumental music suit me perfectly, I often get on YouTube after watching your videos and try to hear other selections by the artists you use. It broadens my musical horizons. Since you asked, I prefer instrumentals, but how ever you choose to do it is all good for me. Thank you for posting and sharing them. -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'
