Now she mostly calmly stand on my arm. She still needs some time (probably a few more days) to be calm around me. To be completely calm, probably two or three months are needed (based on my experience with my previous Harris's hawk).

We will see.
I spend hours with her every day.

I gave her chicken breast, chicken liver and a mouse so far. The mouse was freshly took from the mouse trap yesterday (on 2024.05.08). She ate the chicken breast from my hand. She ate the chicken liver from my hand and from the ground. She ate the mouse from the ground. Shortly after I put it into her aviary.

Parent reared female Harris's hawk.
Hatched on 2023.06.28.
Age: 10 months old (as of 2024.05.09) (she will be 11 months old on 2024.05.28).
I bought her on 2024.04.30.

One of my friends is still making the anklets and the jesses.

Soon (probably in the next few days) I will write more updates about the taming progress.

Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.
