I have Harris Hawks perching on my beam a lot.  There have been as many as six at one time.  I'm always reluctant to turn the beam when they are there.  They are rare in the way that they hunt cooperatively and the fact that the mother is in charge.  Earlier in the year, a pair of Peregrine falcons was nesting in a neighbor's tree but using my tower as a hunting perch.

A friend, also a ham, is a licensed falconer and he has one of each that he hunts with.

?All,? I haven't been on the air lately because a mother bird chose to
select my TX-472 for her nest and at about eye level is a nest of 3 little
babies.? Just don't have the heart to scare them into jumping out when I
raise the tower to 72'.? My patience is wearing a bit thin though.? Fully
nested and a failure to launch...? Hi? Russ K5ZZR
