Hi,

I am new to this group, so I apologize if this topic has been covered
recently.  I am trying to find a good glove for use working with birds 
of prey.  Some of the people I know use welding gloves.  I would like 
to know if there are gloves made specifically for birding, or if I can 
find thick, long gloves that might fit a small womans hand better than 
most welding gloves.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

While I'm at it, I am also curious to know if many of you work with 
large birds, or if you ever have discussions about falconry.  I would
love to hear your stories.  If this topic doesn't seem to be of general
interest, please email me directly.

Thanks!

Julie Skeen
