It's official. The final rule adding Connecticut to the list of states whose falconry regulations are in compliance with Federal regulations was published in the Federal Register today.

Just a quick update. I finally received my Connecticut falconry permit and am awaiting my Federal permit. Inclduing myself, there should be about six licensed falconers for this first "official" falconry season.
Can't wait for trapping season!

How does that work with regular hunting?
Thanks much!
