    Episode 62: John Goodell

    When we consider falconry, we think of great adventures pursuing wild game with trained birds of prey. But we also think of its rich history, we think of conservation, the arts, biology, and so many other facets of a sport that encompasses but also transcends the mere act of chasing quarry… And in this episode, John Goodell brings us through his career as a biologist, conservationist, falconer, museum curator, and now Curator for the Archives of Falconry… So much of everything we love as falconers, in one conversation with one great guy.

    Al Ross

    Al Ross

    Al Ross, warmly known as "Mr. Merlin" amongst his peers, has long been a pioneer in the sport of falconry. Growing up without the knowledge or access to information later falconers would enjoy, he discovered and learned much of what he's now recognized for developing, almost entirely from studying the raptors in the wild themselves. From being the first to make a game hawk out of a Harris's Hawk, to "outer-mewing" Merlins season after season, to showing the world new things that these capable little falcons were able to do... Even those who have known Al Ross from the beginning still have a hard time keeping up!

    Jeremy Kessler

    Howling winds buffet us as Jeremy Kessler and I hunker over my podcasting equipment at the table in Steve Jones' customized school bus. In this episode, we learn about Jeremy Kessler. At the time of recording, Jeremy is flying a cast of falcons… and brings a very interesting perspective into this episode. Despite the most careful planning and preparation, falconry often spirals into a chaotic sport. Many of us spend our days doing everything we can to avoid chaos, to ensure everything goes off without a hitch. Jeremy embraces the chaos.
