Sweet! Looks like she’s got telemetry on her as well, or maybe it’s a tercel? What kind of bird is it?

I randomly grabbed that photo out of my Flickr - it was from a long time ago and I can't remember if that was male or female...and I can't remember if that was a captured prairie falcon or one he purchased. Pretty sure it was a straight falcon. He has gyr/falcon cross now. Kinda fun to go watch and try and grab some photos.

Another buddy of mine used to hawk with a red tail which was kinda fun to watch as well, different technique from falcons - he's got gyr/falcon hybrid now also.

They run GPS systems now...they may still run tele backups like I do on my birddogs as a failsafe. Anyway, they get some cool flight downloads from the GPS data.
