2. They taste like chicken

That was a seriously cool video. Thanks for posting this.

Kudos to the little girl who appeared to get the talons in her arm when the owl didn't get centered on the glove. She enjoyed the experience and didn't freak out.

3. Wonderful, the Owl...

I've strangely been a fan of them, but I don't know where that came from. I also didn't know how well they spiral.

Just majestic to watch, LiberalArkie…

5. Reminds me of a line in a poem

(the birds) in flight opened a tunnel
through the wind would pass
to where birds were breaking open
the dense blue air -
and there, night came in

6. Loved the demostration of how a goshawk can fold its wings...

... and fly through tight spaces. So cool.

On edit: Looking online, it appears the bird folding its wings was a Harris's Hawk, not a goshawk. Apologies for the confusion.

7. That was lovely to watch.

Near the end where the bird spirals straight down to the earth was stunning.

8. Amazing demo of what these birds can do.

These trainers are in the Netherlands, according to a Google search. The audience was so well behaved, especially the little girl.

Thx for posting, LiberalArkie.
