Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/07/30

While heading back out to work in Wyoming again for a few months earlier this year, I decided to make a pit stop to visit Tyler Sladen again. He had mentioned that he wished he'd had more of a chance to get more in depth about different aspects of quail hawking that we didn't talk about during our first recording, so I managed to meet up with him right before he filmed his video collaboration with Final Rise, and got more in depth with the topic. Speaking of the Final Rise video, if you haven't seen

We're back in Texas again for this episode with former NAFA president, Sheldon Nicolle.

Episode 121: Jim Ince

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/07/02

While at the Archives of Falconry Spring Rendezvous, I had to pleasure of meeting this episode's guest, Jim Ince. I was bummed earlier this year to not get to meet Jim at the Texas Hawking Association meet, since I had heard great things about him not only as a falconer, but also as a bell and hood maker. Jim is another falconer that has been at it since the early days, and as it turns out, happens to be a pretty good guy also! While at the Rendezvous, I was happy to learn that Jim will be part of a

2024/06/25

This episode was another that was recorded while at the joint NAFA/IAF meet in Kearney, Nebraska. Santiago was one of the many international falconers who was able to come to the meet, and in between meet functions, he was able to discuss some of the different aspects of falconry in Spain, as well as talk about conservation and other important topics that we continue to face in modern falconry, no matter where we're from! It's always good getting more international falconers on the podcast!Special

Episode 118: Pakorn Patimetha

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/06/18

Out of all of the episodes I've recorded thus far for the podcast, this episode has to be one of the most unique. This episode features another New Jersey falconer, who was recorded last summer as part of the ongoing dachshund series, and hearing his falconry and overall life journey was truly inspiring! Pakorn Patithema discusses what he had to overcome in his youth to pursue falconry, and how falconry was what kept him on a good path, in what could easily have turned out to be a dangerous one for

2024/06/11

While recording the bulk of the ongoing dachshund series last summer in New Jersey, Paul Eliya, Casey Everett, Pakorn Patimetha (who you'll hear from soon), and Erik Swanson decided to sit down and have a group discussion, highlighting different viewpoints on a couple of continual hot topics within the falconry community: the use of social media by falconers, and the US falconry sponsorship system. These topics can spawn some heated debates amongst the falconry community, but the participants in

Episode 116: Clayton White

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/06/04

This episode is another lengthy one, and it's packed full with a lot of good information and experiences! A lot of you, especially the falconry book collectors in the community, will probably recognize the name of our guest for this episode. Clayton White, who is the author of Peregrine Quest, and co-author of Peregrine Falcons of the World, gave me the better part of his afternoon a few months ago, so the jaunt was made down to Utah to discuss Clay's tenured history researching birds of prey. For

Episode 115: Jeff and Lauren Redig

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/05/28

This is another nice change of pace episode for you all, featuring another husband and wife falconry duo. Jeff Redig was recorded at last year's NAFA meet, and while we were all in Wyoming to meet with and record other falconers. a recording with Lauren was able to get done as well. The decision was made to go ahead and combine their conversations into one episode, so here we go! A lot of different things are covered in these conversations, ranging from the trials and difficulties of falconry to the

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/05/21

This episode with Dennis and Alyssa Hurley was one of the last episodes recorded while in Tyler, TX, and is only one of a couple of episodes published thus far that features a father/daughter falconry tandem! It was interesting to hear about some of their experiences getting into falconry together, as well as some of the early hurdles they had to face. Their falconry path is another one that many should hear, particularly by those who are still very young and thinking about pursuing the

This episode concludes (for now) the series featuring falconers from Canada. While at this past year's NAFA meet, Nathan Hyland was finally able to come onto the podcast to discuss using modern technology to film hunts, flying falcons, goshawks, Harris's hawks, and other species in Canada, and other fun topics. Hopefully in the future, we'll be able to coordinate other in-person recordings with other guests from Canada at a meet, but until then, thanks for listening to the series, and hope you've

We also discussed different aspects of being musicians, NAFA, the New Jersey club, his sponsor and mutual friend, Bon Lozaga (sorry Bon!), and he also shared one of the craziest stories I've ever heard in regards to potentially disastrous hawk encounters with farm equipment!

2024/04/23

We're back in Eastern Texas again for this episode, in which Robert Carter joins us to discuss his transition from his early falconry days flying longwings on ducks, to flying red tailed and Harris's hawks on squirrels. He also is one of the first falconers I've talked to that has incorporated poodles to help in his falconry. This is also another good episode that goes into depth more on living by the falconry principle of adapting your falconry to the quarry and opportunities you have available to

This episode not only takes us back to more dachshund talk, but Brian also discusses different kinds of trapping, as well as other important aspects of falconry that he's had a lot of experience with. This was another fun episode recorded while visiting the falconry crew around the New Jersey/New York area, and again, highlights just how much dachshunds can add to the falconry experience in the right areas!Special

We're coming down to the last couple of episodes of the series featuring falconers from Canada. There's still one left after this episode (for now), but the guest for this episode, Dale Guthormsen, is a well-traveled and experienced falconer. Dale is full of knowledge and stories, and I'm glad that we got a chance to talk about all kinds of odds and ends, including standards in falconry, certain training techniques with longwings, learning from others' mistakes, and special birds. There's no doubt

Falconry Chronicles Podcast ·

2024/04/02

This was one of handful of episodes that was recorded at the 2023 NAFA meet. This last NAFA meet also happened to be the international (IAF) meet, and presented the chance to sit down with a few falconers from other countries. In this episode, Michael Calvin sits down to discuss and clarify the current state of falconry in Australia, raptor rehabilitation in Australia, and what brought him to eventually settle in Australia in the first place. There's a lot of good information in this episode
