GOT MY HUNTING PARTNER
The wind was just right for the Red-Tails to sail over our traps Wednesday.
I went to Western Maryland with Dave and Bill and had a great day trapping hawks.
We caught 18 hawks. I got first pick and took the biggest one.I named her Lilya Litvak, after a Soviet air ace from WW11, LILY, for short.She's the one on the left, all taped up for the ride home. 
We turned the rest of the hawks loose.
Here she is home with new ankets and jesses.She ate from my glove the first night and has gotten very tame.She weights 54 oz. Last weekend I caught a little male with my little BC trap. I taped him and weighted him. 
He was just over two pounds.I took some pictures and turned the little guy loose.Mark came over and we started work on my corn crib.
I got most of the siding done on Sunday. Hope to finish this week
