Falconry: Understanding the role of food
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- This falconry video dives into the psychology of how raptors view food. Understanding this psychology is vital to any falconer or wildlife trainer. These principles are not the same as how food is viewed by other animals. Proper understanding of raptor psychology towards food will prevent aggression, vocalization, and lead to success in flying and hunting.
Understanding these principles is vital to success in falconry and raptor husbandry.

Thank you so much! These videos help the things my sponsor is teaching me to be reinforced into my memory.
Thanks Ben! Been watching your videos, and they have been very helpful! I just passed the falconry exam, and I'd like to thank you for the efforts you put into sharing your knowledge. It is invaluable!
Congrats! I passed mine back in March. It was a great feeling. And Ben's videos and book helped me a lot as well.
Wow, such a great video Ben. This is certainly a crucial mechanic to understand, and I'll be rewatching this one for sure to drill in these important points you discuss.
Thank you for the super helpful videos!
Food...such a basic item in life, with so many possible consequences!!
Great video, wie immer!
I love all your videos Ben, as an apprentice working with her first tiercel red-tail hawk, any videos focused on them would be wonderful. Thanks as always!
It's a male red tail. A tiercel is a male peregrine. The classic names, such as tiercel, mean specific things.
@@NMFalconry I highly agree with this comment. Certain terms mean very specific things in Falconry. It bothers me when people throw the term "Austringer" around way too loosely
This was awesome
Brilliant and insightful as always Ben.Well done.You cover often difficult and complex issues but brake them down and deliver solutions in every understandable way.Keep up the good work and continued success. Could you cover and give some insight into Ferruginous xi Harris hybrids..I have a friend who is having a little trouble with a male , Many Thanks Andy.
Thanks, Ben, great video! I am a first year apprentice and almost every problem I have had this year with my male HH, I have had to address with or around food. He got sticky footed a bit so I started throwing his food tidbits to the ground, after he came to the glove, problem solved. He didn't like the hood, so I made sure to give him a tidbit each time it came off, he mellowed on that. He also goes right into his giant hood now after training, to get his tidbit. I don't fly him with jesses anymore since he started doing that. He didn't like me petting behind his head until I started trading them for a tidbit. Now he doesn't care. And on and on. Now my problem is him carrying so yet again, a change to his food as I am having to weight it now.
This doesn't sound like you are working with a passage HH. Have you had a passage bird before this? If not I strongly recommend talking to your sponsor about you getting a passage bird, specifically a red-tail if it is available to you.
@@thomasbergeaux2647 First, I want to thank you for the advice. I knew going into this that my experience with a captive-bred HH would be different, easier and likely more forgiving of my mistakes with him. My sponsor jokes that I cheated. I do plan on getting a passage red-tail in the future, but for now I am limited to this one until my license allows. I know that it will be very different experience when I do. Thanks again.
@@SL-vx1sx I do have to agree with your sponsor lol. I have never personally flown a HH but I have hunted with them and they are a great joy to hunt with and so so easy. Definitely easy to get spoiled to. However, I dont know if I will ever fly one because there is something behind the magic of trapping a wild bird and hunting with it, and then eventually setting it free. When you do get a wild bird make sure to go out and trap it yourself. The experience is breathtaking
I love your content so educational. I was wondering if you could do a video on kites in falconry, one of those birds you dont hear much about.
Awesome info. Passed my exam! Making those mews buddy!!!
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done! New chapter beginning!
Thank You for charing this Video and taking your Time 👍 I like the Way, You explain something
Great analogies, always makes it so easy to understand and explain to other people. Keep up the good work!
Very, very helpful again . Thank you Ben.
Great as always 👍
check out 18:10 that lady knows her bird she is not hovered over it adding stress in the eat process. thats why you watch ben do his thing expert advice... good vid
Great informations Ben.
Shahab from UAE
thank you very much for this video
Weight management also change the bird comportement on a kill. A hungry bird will eat asap. A too low bird will mantle more and trade poorly. If too high, they tend to carry and become nervous on you're approach ;) Good vid! :D
you have a way of explaining things like no one else, I am a second-year apprentice flying a new male Red tail, he tends to be Footy only when taking off the jesses before I put him in his hood and go hunt. He has yet to catch anything but has had and a few grabs. My Sponsor says it will stop after he catches something. What are your thoughts
ben is a raptor!!
Hello Ben, can you please tell me what's the name of the breed in the thumbnail of this video? Much appreciated.
This is an Anatum subspecies of peregrine falcon from Utah. In this photo he has his first year colors.
@@benwoodrufffalconryThanks friend.
My biggest fear is that bens videos get deleted before i get my first bird, theyre so good. Well maybe my biggest fear is yo never get my first bird and that was the second one
ESPECIALLY ON THE FREEWAY!!!😁🤣
I almost spat out my chips when I heard that 😂
Ben, i just watched a video about the first couple of weeks of training a red-tail hawk, following a method espoused by Gary Brewer (spelling? ), and wondered if you might have any comments? Freundlichen Grüßen

It certainly is a Falconry channel when every video has "Falconry" in the title. That's not bad, but it's important to share information that's true. Much of what you're saying is pure conjecture. That's surprising because it's possible to research these topics before making these videos.
Half way through the video you start teaching people things and, at the end, you seem confused and tell apprentices watching this video to go ask their sponsor. At least that's good advice.
Thanks for sharing your personal experiences and how you've handled problems you've had with your birds.
I strongly disagree with the statement that much of the video is pure conjecture.
This is a discussion on the psychology of how raptors view food, based on a good amount of experience.
And to refer people to their own sponsors is one of the wisest things to do - as there are people all over the world watching this, who's local falconry 'meta' may vary greatly, and that's why input from a sponsor (local to that viewer) is relevant and important
I am no expert falconer but Ben's perspective on this sport is very true. Everyone sees it in their own way but his is very easy to understand. He is very wise in keeping it open to debate at the end and always asking your sponsor about what is being learned. You never stop learning and as an apprentice your sponsor is your biggest asset.
@@Wildhydro If it's not conjecture then I would ask for other sources and evidence. Nothing in Falconry is really new, or very rarely is something new discovered. Someone else must have written these concepts of Falconry psychology in a book, and It should align with what this person is teaching.
I don't doubt he's a great falconer or anything like that. I have fundamental problems with information that's not correct or properly presented. It's unethical.
@@thomasbergeaux2647 I strongly disagree based on my knowledge shared with me in books and experience.
Why am i wrong and Ben right?
Making Falconry video is difficult and simply saying it's not a Falconry video isn't an out. The title says "Falconry", he's teaching people technical skills of the sport, and he's referring people to other videos for more knowledge. By definition, that's making Falconry education videos for the public.
When someone does that it needs to be presented much better than this. I know exactly how he's formed this concepts. I understand what he's trying to say, but he's done it wrong on this one.
Thousands of people may come to this channel for information and it's best to give them information that is correct to the best of one's knowledge, and it should be generally accepted in the community as true.
Random psychobabble presented as Falconry education isn't ethical.
@@MayhemKeys So you are saying that if you don't conform to the community standard, you are doing something unethical? Count me in the unethical group then. 😛 Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but that comment is just a bridge too far in my opinion.
