Hi all I had hawks drive my birds off 4 day ago got most back by the next day. I was still 2 short. Today I was flying a young kit of Weins. I was working on the tractor and looked up and it looked like a dark check was doing some amasing spinning! I thought it was a Weins Kicking in. I stood and watched them land and trap. When I looked in there it was a black one It was a Henderson from my A team over fly 4 days ago! It's feet and band were all dryed mud. It felt good in the hand. It's an 05 that I raised. Sure was glad to get this one back. If it makes it through the W/C. I'm stocking him. He's 20-30ft fast Now I only have one MIA. Tomorrow I'm going to Home Depot and getiing me some flood lights for the roofs of my kit boxes and ground lighting as Dave,Henderson suggested! Ps My kit flew and didn't have as good of breaks with out this bird. Happy times!!!!---------- Tapp

Kim, Nice to hear some good news from your part of the world.It's sooooooo sweet when they come back,and even sweeter when you can fly without having the BOPs attack.It's been good here on the westcoast where I am.Finally got my hens and cocks all together,sorted out the non kitters and have a team now of 22.Is pretty exciting to have a team of birds approaching the year old mark.Now comes the fine tuning. ---------- Kelly
