Peregrine Audubon Society Presentation
Art Haschak on Peregrine Falconry
Tuesday, November 28, 2023 at 7PM - Ukiah City Council Chambers

Peregrine Audubon Society presents local falconer Art Haschak and his fast friends. Art in his 51st year as a falconer. Art grew up in Willits and has been flying falcons and hawks since he was 17.

When Art last spoke to PAS about 10 years ago, he brought his female Peregrine “Sis-Sis” and discussed general raptor identification. This time he'll focus on the various races of Peregrine with insight on the differences between Peregrines and Gyrfalcons, Prairie Falcons and Merlins. Art currently has a seven year old daughter of Sis-Sis, a six month old daughter, and a one and a half year old Red-Naped Peregrine, which is native to the Middle East and Africa. He hopes to bring at least one of these birds as we discuss the interesting differences in hunting styles between the different falcon species.
