Inhaltsangabe
Falconry is an ancient and noble art, still practiced today by falconers throughout the world. While, these days, falconry birds are mostly bred in captivity, they are still wild, independent animals and owning and training them requires the right commitment, knowledge and skills.
Falconry Basics is designed to provide those new to falconry with the essential information they need, including the basics of types of birds and their individual characteristics; acquiring the proper equipment; how best to care for and maintain healthy birds, and all aspects of training, flying and hunting.
Accompanied by diagrams and line drawings throughout, and with additional material, such as a glossary of falconry terms, this newly revised and updated edition offers a comprehensive, practical guide for a whole new generation of falconers.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren
Tony Hall (1944–2015) wrote Falconry Basics in 2003 as guide for anyone, including those with no experience at all of the countryside and field sports, to the noble art of falconry. He was editor of the British Hawking Association's journals, and became a champion for creating access to the sport of falconry for anyone. He wanted others to experience the unique partnership of falconer and hawk and the connection with nature which that can bring.
Dr Michael (Mike) Nicholls has been an active falconer since 1968. He was involved in the development and promotion of the first nationally recognised awards for falconry best practice. Mike is a co-opted member of the Hawk Board education sub-committee, and a former editor of the British Falconers' Club Journal and Newsletter. He has written extensively for scientific journals and popular falconry books and magazines.
Tom Dutton has extensive veterinary experience of working with exotic species, especially raptors and reptiles. He regularly lectures on all aspects of exotic animal medicine and care, and supervises the only UK-based European College of Zoological medicine avian residency programme, helping to train the specialists of the future.
Derek Hartshorne is Director of The Raptor Awards.
