About the Speaker:
Greg Thomas has been flying red tail hawks for nearly 50 years. In 2006, at the request of NAFA, Greg made a major presentation on the red tail to visiting dignitaries and foreign falconers at the NAFA national field meet. Greg is a Director-At-Large for NAFA and a dedicated hawker. We welcome him and look forward to his insights and stories about the versatile and often underestimated red tail hawk.
