Mike Rowe, best known for his work on the Discovery Channel series Dirty Jobs, shot an episode of his current television show, called Somebody’s Gotta Do It, with Falcon Force last summer. The shoot took place while we were in the thick of protecting wine grapes with our avian warriors. The day was packed with lots of action, funny interviews, peregrine lure flying lessons for Mike, and of course recording our birds in action, through back mounted cameras, as they chased the pesky birds out of the vineyards. All this while I spent the entire day with Mike in my office (aka my truck). A very bright and interesting man, with a fantastic sense of humor! The footage will soon be released (air-date will be announced soon) as season 4 of Somebody’s Gotta Do It on CNN. Stay tuned!
