'The bird’s quite aggressive so
it has to be someone with experience of handling birds of prey'
18:19, 5 JAN 2018
An ‘extremely rare’ bird has been
stolen from the garden of a keen falconry expert who has been working with
birds of prey for 30 years.
Believed to be one of only around
20 in the UK, three-year-old Teala was taken from her home in Newthorpe
yesterday afternoon, Thursday, January 4.
She is a cross between a Harris
hawk and a red-tail hawk, and had been taken out of her shed to get some sunlight
before her owner, Jamie Alexander, took her for her daily flight.
He went back inside the shed just
20 yards away, and moments later she was taken, along with the perch she was
tied to.
