Cersei (Prairie/Gyrfalcon, female)

Cersei came to us in the fall of 2021 in her second year.  She was bred by a licensed raptor breeder for falconry, and she is a mix of prairie and gyrfalcon, which are not native to our area.  In her first year hunting with her falconer, she sustained an injury resulting in concussion and didn’t exhibit reliable hunting skills after that.  Because she was captive bred and at least partially imprinted, she cannot be released into the wild.
