One Man And His Bird

When I got up to the stables yesterday Jimmy was out doing some work with his new Harris Hawk, so I grabbed the camera from the car. As well as being an Ireland International at clay pigeon shooting, Jimmy is an experienced falconer. These two are just getting started together, but the bond between bird and man is already strong as Harry flew to the glove instantly when whistled. I look forward to photographing them properly when they're working wild.
