He had a wild 1hook in lis eyes. But there was nothing to fear. Two master falconers were ai my side, giving me instructions as I held on to a restraining rope for dear life. Anyway, Uic falcon was, traiaed and used to novices like me. AUl this took place at a school of falconry ai Golden Creek Bird Farm near Severn Bridge a few miles north of Orillia. The school was started hast year by Fredý Hoesterey and Matt Lciberknecht, two Europeaa-trained falconers who have beea around birÈds since dhuldhood.

The hunt will rua from Monday, November 4th to Saturday, November 9th. The liant will remain restricted to shotgans and muzzleloaders. The reason for the extension of the hant is to curb the expansion of the quickly growing deer population and provide deer hanters a longer season to enjoy their sport. The deer population bas been steadily growing for the past 12 years and is considered to be 3 to 5 times what it was in the late 1970's. The mucli bigher deer population is.allowing a lot more chances for people to see deer but it also creating some probiexus.May- more deer are getîing hit by cars on our roads simply because more deer mean more chances of someone hittîng one.
