		<description>One of the reasons I write about falconry on my blog, and occasionally for magazines is so that I can feel like I am connected. There just aren&#039;t that many falconers in my daily life so it is hard to feel like I&#039;m connected.  as you know, sometimes the birds can become and all consuming and welcome part of your life.  I often feel the need to communicate with others who &quot;get it&quot;.  So many people don&#039;t.

This time of year seems to be especially hard, and I often feel a disconnect with the other people around me.  I want nothing more than to be flying my bird, reveling in the soft sound of bells in the branches above me, but it is not quite time.

I think I understand how you feel.

Congratulations on the book.  I look forward to reading it.

		<description>I like the sharp, steady, steely gaze of that bird. Wish I could always be like that.</description>
