This happens during free flight and following-on training whenever I don't have a tidbit ready for Tara when she wants one and my gloved hand outstretched. Tara will fly up on me from behind and land on top of my hat. There she will wait patiently until I put out my gloved hand. When I do though it will be without a tidbit as I don't want her to think that this landing-on-top-of-the-old-man's-hat is a part of her training. It is not. She still likes to do it at least once or twice each time that we go out :-)

Could it be that she's exhibiting her dominance or lack of patience with me? Or both? lol...just like a woman ;-)
