Actionpigeons Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 What is his flying weight AP? Sorry I dont know. It was just a picture I found and thought I would share. The largest hawk I have flown was a Ferruginous about twenty years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazza9t9 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I've seen a bald eagle in the wild when I was in Canada and that was impressive. My dad flys birds of prey and some of his mates fly goldens always great to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actionpigeons Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 I like the thought of fly an eagle but I just dont have the open land for one. I would worry about some one walking a small dog. I have been out with Golden eagles a few times, males and females and love watching them hunt.
