Hi John, Got to disagree we you about weather conditions NOT mattering, when bop needs to feed ? Yes he will TRY to hunt, But Wet feathers don't work as well as dry , Also these birds don't have big energy stocks So on windy days they to work harder to stay on prey , And that's why fanciers who wait for so called Bonny days to train Sun out ! Clear sky's ! Light breeze ! Tossed at Noon ! End up looking for a Rope !!! John at Percy wiz doon port Gorden area this morning , ur problems probably come Fa Cullen side , Good luck John ,
