If your raptor is mobbed by crows and flies into a tree refusing to come down, what can you do?

Calling your raptor to the fist with a tidbit is an effective strategy when it has been mobbed by crows and seeks refuge in a tree. This technique leverages the raptor's training and natural instincts; birds of prey are often motivated by food, especially when they feel safe. By offering a tidbit, you can entice the raptor to leave its perch and return to you.

Additionally, this method provides positive reinforcement, encouraging the bird to associate your voice and the offer of food with safety and reward, thus strengthening the bond between you and your bird. This approach prevents any escalation of distress for both the raptor and the handler.

While other options may initially seem viable, they lack the effectiveness and safety that come from utilizing positive reinforcement in this specific scenario.
