Who knew birds of prey could be so darn cute! She purrs gaaaah!!

[bubbajenkins]

You and Augusto did great, Jess! Birds of prey are so majestic!

It can get pretty cold in the desert at night, so I guess it makes sense she'd have some tolerance for it.

[Molscheira]

My heart warms every time she purrs - what an amazing feeling it must be to be a part of her pack, to have gained her trust! Thank you for showing us Hara ❤️

[TheTravelVal]

Loved this video!!
PS videography looked professional to me!

[hojetsala]

Ohh she is so beautiful! And man, having a hawk literally calling you a friend must be so special! Good on you both :)

[gordonwiley]

Oh my goodness she is lovely! I also love the description of the slatted walls, alot of smart design went into her home.

'A walk with a hawk' sounds like a childrens book! ❤️

[kickingviolets]

I actually really liked this format of video! It felt so personal like we were actually just taking a walk with you and Hara!

Didn't realize it was Tuesday until you reminded us in the beginning haha. I saw the video and thought "Oh that's right, its Thurs"

[NecroyashaSayuri]

Hi, I was wondering what the reason for her "squatting" at around 6:04 is?

[kalanthris]

Thx a lot Augusto for helping Jessi filming Hara!
And thx both for keeping the videos going on!

[ediekoller]

Hara is a beautiful hawk and I am so glad she has a wonderful home where she is loved and taken care of. Thanks so much for the video Jessi.

We have had an amazing experience, the nesting and birth of two Harris hawks in a nest in a Sahuaro cactus that is on our ranch. We have watched from nest building to birth and now hunting for food.
God has blessed us with these birds for at least 20 yrs. they seem to like our horses and seeing us feed, clean and water horses. The best neighbors. Hara is beautiful. Thank you for posting her life with you.
Please post more videos.

I didn't know they purred! That's adorable!
I'm surprised you didn't mention the stacking! That's the most fascinating thing (to me) about these birds!

[veledwin]

I don't know if she can read the whole newspaper from three football fields away, but I don't doubt that she could at least read the headline! That's amazing. But not as amazing as the bond you and Hera have. That was a pleasure to watch 💛

God she’s gorgeous, I’ve always loved birds of prey especially hawks. I was very excited to see Hara featured on this hang out :). Also the video looks wonderful, you guys did an incredible job!

[ziizification]

Thank you so much for a lovely walk with such a lovely animal! I've always loved raptors (I got to 'adopt' one as a birthday gift through a rescue center as a kid) so they're animals I really love. Hara is a beautiful bird!

[locutusofquail]

You did great with the filming! Happy to see your lovely face and hang out with Hara. :)

[LadyDynamitez]

These vlog-style videos would be really cool in general (when you're talking to the camera before and after Hara)!
