You mentioned that he breeds them, have you got any pictures of the babies, parents caring for them, etc? Not sure about anyone else, but I'd find that fascinating -- I can understand if the breeding area is off-limits though, I know that you have to be really careful about exposing them to germs and things (I worked in a pet store at one time and had to go through a whole routine of sterilizing my hands, changing clothes etc. before I could go see the baby parrots; I assume all birds are similarly delicate).

Check your state's Falconry club.....do a google search for Falconry groups or clubs or go to apfalconry.com and you might find it listed there !
As for pics of babies...yes I can get some but I must warn you, and Reefcherie can back me on this, a baby bird of prey, has a face only a mother could love ! They are so NOT ATTRACTIVE babies !!! LOL ! There hideous appearances give no hint to what amazing creatures they will grow to become !!!
