Chapter 60 The best iron back red


Chapter 60 The best iron-backed red

I saw this big eagle spreading its wings and flying towards the southwest. In the morning light, its wings were golden.

“It’s so beautiful!”

Yue Feng couldn’t help but admire in his heart, then he lowered his head and checked the frightened pigeon. After confirming that there was no problem, he hung it up again. Self-catching mesh.

With Big Old Leopard having a good start this morning, my luck is obviously much better than yesterday.

A northwest wind of level 3 or 4 was blowing in the sky, and there were more birds of prey.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Yue Feng was squatting in the shack and staring at Hubula with big eyes. He saw Hubula suddenly shrink his neck and became nervous again.

As usual, Yue Feng pulled the lure with his left hand to make the pigeon flutter its wings. The next second, Hu Bu La, who had already shrunk his neck, suddenly jumped a few steps down along the pole, and plopped Suddenly, it jumped directly into the air-raid shelter that Yue Feng had dug for it in advance and remained motionless.

Yue Feng took a closer look through the gap in the shack and saw a sub-adult goshawk hovering about twenty or thirty meters above the field.

At this height, one can already vaguely see the outline of the raptor in the air, as well as the iconic wing fingers on both sides of the wings.

There is a short process from when an eagle discovers its prey to when it locks onto it and hovers for observation. Eagle hunters call this behavior seduction.

Although raptors are at the top of the food chain in the wild, they are still very cautious when hunting, especially when hunting in areas outside their own territory. Early observation is definitely essential.

Seeing this, Yue Feng pulled the rope holding the bait pigeon again with his left hand. Under the pull of the rope, although the pigeon was afraid, it still flapped its wings instinctively to maintain its balance.

The next second, I saw the goshawk in mid-air. When it was hovering above the pigeon's head and to the southeast side, it folded its wings and dived down.

Quickly, at the moment when the goshawk swooped down and was close to the ground, Yue Feng suddenly pulled the main rope of the net.

The net flipped over with a swipe, directly catching the swooping goshawk firmly.

叽叽叽叽

A series of rapid and sharp eagle calls sounded, and Yue Feng put on his gloves and left the shack.

“Haha, it’s officially opened, an eagle!!” Yue Feng laughed excitedly and immediately went to check the eagle caught in the net.

Er Yingzi is a sub-adult goshawk that just emerged from the nest. The overall feather color is very obviously different from that of an adult goshawk.

The main body color of sub-adult goshawks is based on yellow. Depending on the origin and subspecies, based on the grass yellow color, there will also be different color tendencies such as white, red, purple, and bluish.

The sub-adult goshawk caught now is an ordinary-colored bean-yellow hawk. When Yue Feng came up and looked at it, he was excited but slightly disappointed.

This is a chicken hawk.

As mentioned before, the chicken eagle is the male individual among the goshawks. All raptors have larger females and smaller males, and the same is true for chicken eagles. Chicken hawks can't catch rabbits, so they are not Yue Feng's first choice.

But this is a serious falcon after all. Yue Feng's current falconry shop has just opened, so he can't bear to let it go, so he simply uses gloves to open the net and picks out the falcon. .

He took out the eagle coat with him, wrapped it around the little yellow eagle, and tied it tightly underneath. After checking that the trap was not injured, Yue Feng returned the eagle net to its normal state of waiting to be triggered, and then returned to the shack with the eagle.

This little eagle weighs about one kilogram or three or four taels in hand. It has ordinary feathers and is of average height and weight. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary person picked out from the crowd. There are no obvious disadvantages and no obvious advantages.

However, if you look closely, you can also find some advantages. The skeleton of this little eagle is quite solid, and the claws, wings and other structures are good.

Yue Feng moved his backpack to the side, and then put the little yellow eagle aside.

The eagle hunting ground returned to quiet, and Hubula, who had just plunged into the air raid shelter, regained his energy at this moment. I saw it moving from the bottom of the pole to the head of the pole, and then stretched its arms and neck. The feathers all over its body fluffed up and pulled a small poop, and its tail bit by bit, Seems quite relaxed.

Yue Feng remembered that he had not fed it in the morning, so he took out a piece of meat wrapped in a cabbage leaf from his backpack and handed it to the shrike.

A second ago, this tiger was still lively and active. After seeing the meat strips, the hair on his body tightened, and his eyes were staring at Yue Feng's hand. After the meat strips were delivered to him, A probing of the neck caught the strip of meat.

The shrike has a very sharp mouth, but its claws have little power. It also eats meat in the wild. Small frogs, lizards, mice, birds, etc. are all on its diet.

It has a very notorious habit of hanging its prey on spikes or other similar structures, and then tearing the meat bit by bit with its mouth to eat.

Because of its habits, the shrike is also nicknamed the butcher bird.

The shrike who took the meat stick was in this state at the moment. It could clearly swallow the meat stick by raising its head and swallowing it in one bite, but it insisted on tearing it apart and eating it carefully, trying several times with the meat stick in its mouth. After that, he hung it on the tip of a nail that Yue Feng had specially smashed at the front end of the pole, and then he started eating in a ceremonial manner.

Yue Feng didn't have much fun in the shack. He just stared at the shrike tearing meat and eating it. After finishing one piece of meat, Yue Feng gave him another piece.

Before he finished the second piece of meat, the shrike, who had been eating the meat a second ago, suddenly plunged into the air-raid shelter below like a ten-meter dive.

Even Yue Feng didn't have time to react when he saw a lavender shadow swiping towards the sun from the south and grabbed the lure in the middle of the Eagle Farm.

The lure was tied to a stake on the ground. The hawk grabbed the dove and wanted to fly away, but was held back by the rope under the dove's feet. This gave Yue Feng time to react.

Yue Feng's head was empty at this moment, and he relied solely on conditioned reflex to pull the rope of the eagle net, and once again buckled the second eagle under the net.

With the familiar chirping sound again, Yue Feng rushed out of the shack again.

More than ten meters away, Yue Feng was attracted by the color of the eagle's feathers.

Under the sunlight, the eagle's feathers showed a dreamy dark red color. The eagle had been caught in the net, but at this moment it was still clinging to the pigeons on the ground without sacrificing its life or wealth.

Yue Feng put on his gloves to control the eagle in the net, and then slowly took it out of the net.

What a big red eagle.

White eyebrows, eagle head, flat top, water white eyes, wings and back feathers, showing a color transition from dark red to lavender.

The breast flower on the chest has a rust-colored background, with large and small vertical stripes of black spots floating on it. When the abdomen is lowered, especially on the outside of the two thighs of the eagle, these vertical stripes are The black spots slowly grew larger and took on the shape of water droplets, like eyes representing death and killing.

It is somewhat similar to Yue Feng’s big green kite. The feathers on its back do not have the common golden edge of lanugo hair, but are dark red like an adult eagle. The wings are short and wide, the shoulders are thin, and the large feathers are of excellent solid texture.

The eagle's tail also complements the overall body shape. It is slightly shorter than the ordinary large eagle, with only three and a half sections. short).

Looking at the eagle talons again, the tibia is short and thick, the eagle talons are huge, the four fingers are in a standard cross shape, the large ring of nails are thick, the length is close to four centimeters by visual inspection, the tip of the claw is like a dagger, and just now The bright red blood stain left when the pigeon was caught.

The body of the red hawk is as short and thick as a mallet, its talons are short, its tibia is short, and its tail is also short.

This is the iron-backed red three-short eagle on the eagle spectrum!

If an eagle with this kind of appearance was placed in the Qing Dynasty, it would be supplied to the emperor!

good! Very good! The big eagle that caught rabbits and pheasants this year is here! !

In today’s third chapter, there is a prototype of this Eagle in real life. I still have a photo of it. I will look for it later and post it for everyone to see.

Asking for votes, keep asking for votes! Training an eagle to catch rabbits is much more complicated than training a kite, everyone will wait and see
