Dylan and FHT, thank you for that wonderful speech, it was extremely interesting and informative. I was especially interested because I had the pleasure, for a few days, of being a host to Ron Hartley when he undertook a trip to the U.S. At the time I worked for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service's Denver Wildlife Research Center in Lakewood, Colorado as a raptor biologist. Ron gave a speech about his work and life to my fellow scientists. As an aside, I think every female secretary and female scientist there attended his talk owing to Ron's enchanting accent! I knew just about everything you said in your speech because Ron told me the very same things. I even know the significance of the figure on your tie because Ron gave me a sliver pin of that Zimbabwean falcon figure as well a 4 different colored pins of the ZFA for a collection I am making to give to the Archives of Falconry. The loss of Ron is very tragic, he is missed.
Fantastic, thank you so much for this. Growing up in the Zimbabwe Falconry Club, knowing some of the people but all of the names, it is fascinating to learn and understand the foundation they made for those to follow and what we should all be doing to continue the heritage.
I am working at a falconery farm in Abu Dhabi and i am to know for the first time that they are falconers in Zimbabwe.. i will be happy to also share my Experience here in Abu Dhabi
Absolutely fantastic interview, thank you very much. 😎👍
