NOTE: The birds in this crate are Mesh so you must have a mesh enabled viewer to use them.
These hybrid Falcons are a cross between a Gyrfalcon (largest of the Falcons and "the Falcon of Kings") and a Saker Falcon (resilient and one of the most beloved of hunting companions). Send them off to hunt for mice or take advantage of a sudden rain shower and let them take a bath! They'll spy a stray grasshopper flying by and off they go after it, sometimes successfully bagging a snack! Send them off to wander for a minute by the Menu, make them go to sleep, rename them, etc.
Included in the crate are the resizable shoulder and hand-held Saker Gyrfalcon, a version of each with no chat (for people who rp) and a Basic version (attached to the shoulder) with lower script impact.
You can now send your Falcon to a perch. The included perch is 1 prim. You can remotely send your Falcon to anyplace on the sim you've rezzed a perch with the HUD. More perch styles are available in the shop.
If you rez the Basic version to the ground, you can have it follow you or send it to a perch. You can remotely control it with the HUD. Use the "Comeback" call and your bird will fly to a spot at your feet. (If you have a Black Saker Falcon they will sit side by side).
Two HUDs included (use one or both), one for the individual bird, and a second you can set up to control multiple CKit Birds with just the birds you own showing.
Note: It's best to stay away from sim borders and below 4096.
The animations for the Hand version are set at priority 4. If you are wearing an AO that uses priority 4 and the same upper body areas you may see a conflict with the animations. Included with this version are lists of Animations from various creators that will not conflict with holding a bird. I'm always looking for more to add to the list, so if you have any suggestions, let me know! =)

Perfect!
There is so much i want to say here. I do not think the unresizable glove matters or the other non bird related things because I only rezz them when I am having a laggy glitch from the bathwater or other rezzables. The way these animals sound, move and interact is so realistic. Its a squeefit in a can.
Amazing
Simply incredible animal. 650L is more than reasonable for such a well made, perfectly scripted, awe inspiring product!
Thanks
Seen many Falcon's, but none as nice as this one and complete, nice animations, have them a while now, today got a new update, with a really nice cam function to see trough it eye's. Worth every linden, would buy them again if needed. Also nice to just put them in a tree on your landscape.
wonderful
I got the crows and couldn't resisit the saker gyrfalcon .... I love both. Great animations, wonderful protuct, if you like birds of pray and want a pet that can do other things that sit on your shoulder do not hesitate !!!
Good but...
These are the issues I have with it...
Gloves: really should be modifiable or rigged to make easier to resize rather than relying on the script
Free Fly : the bird doesnt change orientation or direction, rather faces in one direction and goes forward backwards, diagonally, it looks like its getting battered by strong winds, I hope this issue can be fixed
Food: As an avid falconer, gryfalcons eat only mammals and avians, so the grasshopper thing was kinda a bummer, It would make more sense for it to catch smaller birds instead of grasshoppers
Overall, hes a pretty cute little animated guy, I take him with me sailing and the glove animation persist through all the other animations on the boat :>
if you're looking for a pet falcon or bird, dont think theres any thats better than store.
