While recording the bulk of the ongoing dachshund series last summer in New Jersey, Paul Eliya, Casey Everett, Pakorn Patimetha (who you'll hear from soon), and Erik Swanson decided to sit down and have a group discussion, highlighting different viewpoints on a couple of continual hot topics within the falconry community: the use of social media by falconers, and the US falconry sponsorship system. These topics can spawn some heated debates amongst the falconry community, but the participants in this episode wanted to come together to discuss their opinions. This is another first for the podcast, and while you all may or may not agree with the different participants' views on these topics, we hope that this episode inspires constructive thoughts and tasteful conversations/debates within the community!

This episode is another lengthy one, and it's packed full with a lot of good information and experiences! A lot of you, especially the falconry book collectors in the community, will probably recognize the name of our guest for this episode. Clayton White, who is the author of Peregrine Quest, and co-author of Peregrine Falcons of the World, gave me the better part of his afternoon a few months ago, so the jaunt was made down to Utah to discuss Clay's tenured history researching birds of prey. For those of you wanting to learn more about peregrines, and a lot about different aspects of the research and data behind their historical ebbs and flows as a species, get comfortable, and join us!

This is another nice change of pace episode for you all, featuring another husband and wife falconry duo. Jeff Redig was recorded at last year's NAFA meet, and while we were all in Wyoming to meet with and record other falconers. a recording with Lauren was able to get done as well. The decision was made to go ahead and combine their conversations into one episode, so here we go! A lot of different things are covered in these conversations, ranging from the trials and difficulties of falconry to the interactive culture within the falconry community. This is a lengthy two-parter, so enjoy!
