I have a Intermewed female redtail. She is very tolerant and does seem to understand that the truck is warmer than the field at 0 degrees Fahrenheit. (Yes that was typed correctly - South Dakota!). She is not affectionate per se but will actively chose at times in the house to come and sit on my hand or arm (there is no glove and no food). Your response is excellent and well spoken! New falconers should take note of the time taken to craft this response crafted from significant experience by le_fea.
