Parent reared means that the hawk was raised by her parents, and not by humans. If it would have been raised by humans, then it would be imprinted, and she would actually see me as her mother, and later as her mate.

Woah she could see you as her mate
.. I'm shocked that's possible 😳

With imprinted birds (birds raised by humans), this is common. But my current Harris's hawk is not imprinted, but parent reared (raised by her parents), so she will not see me as her mate.

Yes I understood clearly but I'm very shocked that it could actually happen πŸ˜‚πŸ˜³πŸ˜‚
