Well this is just amazing, Teague. I knew people did this but I never really knew what all goes into it. Thanks for sharing, made for some super cool reading.
I notice most of the kills are squirrels and rabbits, and you mentioned that some of it is due to area and some of it is due to what Hawkeye views as prey. What about game like pheasant? Do people use raptors for that as well? Seems to me that would be fascinating to see.
(And now I'm gonna run off to google and youtube instead of waiting on a response )

Well, if you didn't find it on youtube and google, yes some people hunt pheasant. Most game birds and ducks are hunted with goshawks and various falcons. I've seen pheasant and even ducks taken with red tails, but I don't think either is common. Cooper's hawks, sharp-shinned hawks, and sometimes male harris's hawks are used for smaller birds, like quail.
