When reality doesn ' t fit your narrative , ~~ change your narrative . ~~ portray reality as you wish it to be . <| sep |> Vaikka pidn aloitetta erittin typern , nkisin ett on hieman surullista jos 50000 nime kernyt ehdotus jollaista ei ole ennen ksitelty ei psisi nestettvksi . Teatteriahan ne tysistunnot ovat muutenkin . Voisi kytt sen teatterin siihen ett nytetn avoimesti ett eduskunta ei tue ehdotusta . Tm nkemys siksi , ett haluaisin esityksen kunnolla ksittelyyn jos itse jotain jaksaisin joskus tukea . <| sep |> fixed for u <| sep |> No problem ! I love talking about birds of prey , so any excuse ! The amount of time spent with your bird is highly variable . For example , eagle owls are crepuscular creatures being most active at dawn and dusk . Therefore I need to get up around 6 am to fly them , and again in the evening when I get home from work . Hawks and falcons , however , are diurnal birds and need to be exercised in daylight . Also , falconry is defined as hunting with birds of prey . Therefore , someone keeping a birds without taking them hunting as they would do in the wild cannot call themselves a falconer . The time it takes to hunt can be anything from one hour to all day . I work in law at a Fortune 50 and am very lucky to have a very understanding boss there have been many times I ' ve had to call in late or even out of work as my bird hasn ' t wanted to come down from flyinghunting . I have a second work station to work from home when this happens . I don ' t want to bore you with a big long essay , but in short falconry is based on the hunting dynamic between falconer and bird . Birds are like lions in that they spend ~ 85 % of their time perched and sedentary predators are instinctually wired to remain sedentary unless they are hungry . Falconers weigh their birds every morning to ensure a bird never gets hungry we have a ' flying weight ' and ' hunting weight ' that is specific to every individual bird and needs to be learned as , obviously , we don ' t ever want our bird to go hungry . However , if a bird is too full , and you try to fly them they ' ll simply fly to the closest tree and stay there , and the difference in weight between perfect and terrible can be as little as 10 g . Could be hours they stay in the tree . Could even be days . This is where the term ' fed up ' comes from a bird that is ' fed up ' will refuse to fly even if you offer them a steak on a glove . So this is one of many reasons why it ' s difficult to put how much time I ' d spend with them a day really you need to be able to devote the whole day to them and take what remains as a bonus
