And the slower you go the better. Honestly.
Also, can you tell me where I can learn to write in script format? I have to write something in it and don't know how!
Gah!

hobbies
Date: 2004-03-31 09:04 am (UTC)Word of warning - if you plan to take up falconry, be aware that you will have no other hobbies because there will be no time for them. My husband is a currently non-practicing falconer (no time for it) and it is a HUGE amount of work. Just apprenticing to learn how takes...maybe 2-3 years, I think? Can be spectacularly rewarding o'course, but is more often frustrating as hell and disappointing when, after months of time and effort, your bird refuses to return to the glove and flies off never to be seen again. Or, your bird kills something it wasn't supposed to (like, oh a protected songbird instead of a quail), etc etc etc.
It's a hell of a rush though, seeing raptors hunt from up close...a difficult feat with wild raptors (and I spend a lot of time working with wild raptors).
Cheers,
Tracy
