Hi This Adult European Kestrel female had never been hooded before... but took to the hood straight away.... she opened and drooped her wings for a minute or two... but soon settled. The hood I made for her was one size too big ... but was still snug enough. The hood is a Slijper Hood made from lizard tail.... strong but ultra light   |

Kestrels which are well manned generally do not need hooding, but are a good bird to start your hood training on. Hoods for Kestrels are readily available so introduce your bird to the hood by offering food from within the hood so the bird associates the hood with getteing fed. This method is no different to the training of any Falcon,Hawk or Eagle. Patience and care is the key. Good luck
