Harris and Friends

I went for a hawk walk at the national bird of prey centre,which has recently relocated to a country house a few miles away from me. I think I may well be returning on a better day than today.
Took some shots in the courtyard and some while out for the walk. It was great fun calling the Harris hawk to land on my gloved hand, so I probably didnt get as many shots as I could have.
Lots to learn too.
I only used 2 lenses, my Fa*300mm and my Da*50-135mm

some shots, and any and all cc is welcome, Ive not shot anything like this before so any hints, tips or advice is greatly welcomed.

Don't know what this guy was, and couldn't separate him from the fence but i thought he was weird enough to include
