Falconry is the Active pursuit of Wild quarry with a Trained Raptor. It's hunting with a bird of prey! It takes time, committment and dedication to become a falconer, or one who hunts with birds of prey. Here in the Commonwealth, there are specific steps one must take in order to become a falconer.
- you must be 15 years of age (with consent of parents or guardian), or older
- you must possess a valid state hunting license (some may have to take hunter education
classes before being issued a hunting license.)
- you must have a sponsor, a licensed General or Master class falconer who will agree to
be a source of information and guidance for your two year apprentice period.
