Don't worry about the hi-jacking folks, that was interesting!
I took Lupo (the goshawk) and Tyler for a walk behind the house yesterday, but as soon as I got out, I fealt like going home again as the heat was styfling. The sweat was pouring off my head, and the hawk and dog were both panting like crazy before we even got a flight. I decided to go and get a quick, easy kill at the pond. I sent Tyler into the reeds and a moorhen was flushed. I held Lupo back while the moorhen cleared the pond, and tried to give it a sporting chance, but it was no challenge even for a fat, unfit hawk.
When Lupo gets a bit fitter in a few days we will try our hand at partridge.

I have a new training issue if anybody can help me out at all... I am finding Tyler to be quite sticky on point. Does anybody have any tips to encourage him to rush forward on command?
Otherwise things are going really well. Some new pics...
