Re: Harris Hawk at Skitters Wood

Try contacting the farm down near the heath. They are the best bet.

Town: Stubshaw Cross

Re: Harris Hawk at Skitters Wood

I know them there and have already telephoned George at the Heath Farm and it is not one of theirs. I have also telephoned Colin from Woodedge who has a bird of prey and it isn't his either.

These are the only people I know in Ashton who keep birds of prey and it definitely doesn't belong to any of them.

Re: Harris Hawk at Skitters Wood

Sent a couple of emails off but I see you have covered them already.

Re: Harris Hawk at Skitters Wood

The bloke who exercises his bird of prey near Buildbase in Garswood is Colin who I mentioned previously.
This one that is currently frequently seen in Skitters does not belong to him.
