First you have to get a hawk (red tailed are best for beginners). If it's young you have to wait until it loses some weight and make sure it's hard penned. When you weigh a hawk you have to be extrmely careful, you don't want to starve them. You have to weigh them before every meal and gradually cut back it's food (only do this step if it's really young and fat) When you complete this step you're getting somewhere, because they're keen on getting food. When feeding time comes only feed it from your glove and have them jump staight onto your glove to eat. When it's eating grab hold of its jesses and attach it to the swivel then attach the leash, then you wrap the leash around your fingers and tie it to your little finger so that the hawk it attached to your hand. When you do this tha hawk might get scared at start bating. Once they stop bating youcan try feeding it outside (still attached to the glove). Then you take it outside and getting used to other things. Once she's good with EVERYTHING you can
