Falconry Through the Ages

[@jadebabydoll23]

I live the costume changes per era, her knowledge and anecdotes about the subject make this video great to watch

[@ziggystardust3060]

Ah, that takes me back! I used to do a lot of falconry years ago, mainly flying a wonderfully loyal Harris hawk and a beautiful Ferruginous hawk, although I've flown quite a few others as well in my time. Your documentary really lifted my spirits, thanks! 💛

[@guhrizzlybaire]

Gosh falcons and hawks are just so beautiful and they're big eyes are so cute even if they could just quickly rip my face off. Amazing creatures. Thanks for this interesting video.

[@allisarcadia]

Absolutely stunning and beautiful creatures all around.

[@CFinch360]

This was fascinating, their costumes and birds were amazing

[@rugosetexture2716]

Fabulous. Kudos to the presenter and her assistant. Thank you!

[@merbearlorelei]

*looks up falconry places near me* Thank you for such an informative video! I've always loved birds of prey, and I love English Heritage!

[@OEWNRKandFriends]

4:35 the barn owl's eyes are sooooo full of curiosity ... owls are so cat - like

[@SigneofHorses]

The historical costuming/clothing in this video is soooo good! Perfectly fitted and fitting to the said era’s. Hats of on that. I have my chicken and she makes for a lousy bird of prey. But I’m mostly training my horse to be okay with flapping birds. One day perhaps I’ll dive deeper into the art of falconry. This video is a treasure of information.

[@MarysArtOnWheels]

Beautiful Video! Thank you! There's historical \ reenactment falconry in Germany as well and as I love medieval fairs, I've seen quite a few wonderful displays with these amazing creatures. Each time a treat! I was also able to hold a smaller falcon and a young owl once and I can definitely see the appeal! It's a very special feeling to be trusted by such majestic entities!

[@sake9305]

Reminds me of a Falcon rescue I looked after for awhile when I was younger. Since then I’ve yearned for one but I can’t justify getting a couple since I don’t have much time to dedicate to their care and exercise. Perhaps in a few years I’ll be able to do so.

[@bgmaple47232]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love birds of prey. Your birds are beautiful. Thank you for caring for these beautiful birds and sharing them with us.

[@NRJenzenJones]

This was fantastic! A good length, fascinating subject matter, and suitable production values. More videos like this would be much appreciated.

[@chiffchaff3355]

I remember when Raphael Falconry started in the 90's, nobody else were doing historic educational falconry displays. Displays aren't my thing, but Hats of to them.

[@kathrynbrock1558]

I went to a Bird of Prey Day in 2019. It was very different but the birds were the same doing the same things . I love all birds particularly owls . I really enjoyed the video and thanks for the walk through history.

[@anrianemendoza9112]

falcon goes SQREAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKK. id love to imagine the peoples reaction when they saw him with a tamed hawk. the reaction must be priceless

[@christopherjohnson8896]

So interesting, great presentation.

[@emilywhitfield2780]

Great and informative video!! I love all the beautiful and majestic birds of prey!!

[@yikes7607]

Very interesting! I wish you had mentioned Emperor Frederick II of Hohenstaufen but I understand this is more so about the British Isles. If anyone searches his book "De Arte Venandi Cum Avibus" here on KZbin, the first result is a wonderful facsimile of the emperor's highly detailed and scientific book on falconry.

[@debbralehrman5957]

What a lovely presentation. Thank you very much.

[@amandagrayson389]

Thank you so much for this video and wonderful presentation on falconry! I have seen falconry shows at Renaissance faires where I live in Texas but I really appreciated such a comprehensive history of falconry in England. Your costumes were great as well. Thank you again

[@kyleml9635]

Very informative.👍

[@strawberrry1997]

Really interesting video. Lovely shots of the birds too.

[@Lorneplumber]

I've seen Emma and Husband quite a few times now. Always great presentation. Especially the merlin prior to lockdown, astonishing

[@Pandorash8]

Growing up, I always wanted to practice falconry. I love birds dearly and having a bird of prey on your arm is just plain cool. Loved this video so much. Thank you for making it xx

[@michaelmurray2312]

Thank you for educating me for years i watched and listened to mainly boring presenters who haven't got a clue you are honest as the day is long. Thank you.

[@Hotarubi-dono]

So interesting. It's sad to witness that we not only lost the taste for elegance and being proper and respectful, but also beautiful practices like this one. You do a very important job, preserving and sharing our history, many thanks. I hope one day the broad society's taste will return to this kind of beauty and mannerism, even though I doubt it, we live in complicated times. Best wishes!

[@heritagefalconry-andywelsh]

Excellent, been my lifestyle for biggest part of my life👌 Good work, great to remind the world of our falconry heritage/ conservation education.

[@annaverano5843]

Do the falcons and hawks imprint on their humans or are they trained from a small age to always return back to their humans ?

[@heritagefalconry-andywelsh]

@@annaverano5843 my falcons and hawks are bred by me and imprinted on me. I also fly a parent reared peregrine for pest control. Social interaction and appetite control. Great uplifting film👌

[@mariebillard1363]

Wonderful to see them flying ! Thank you to explain how and when they were used in english History. 🙂

[@floopyboo]

Right the way through that bird was like 'Come, on, you're holding out on me. Where are my meaty treats?!"

[@tamarachilingaryan6689]

Such an interesting episode!!! Thank you! I think I could have a merlin of my own....)))

[@JCastanuela]

Best Falconry Breakdown Ever!

[@knownothing5518]

So much history out there and lovely to see some of it here with such wonderful presentation!

[@dreamteammmathenetherlands8258]

Thanks for a great little shortdoc. I learned a lot. Thank you.

[@what2watchyt]

Good info. Future Falconer here in Florida.

[@stefantrnacek1394]

Absolutely magnificent and majestic birds. A very interesting and informative video.

[@johnhufton5787]

Love the costumes and the hawks. Very well presented.

[@psychosquirrel555]

Just so beautiful. At our home here in Australia we have peregrines, browns and hobbies all around us. And a kestrel that roosts opposite our bedroom window. Your birds are gorgeous and I am super jealous you are able to befriend and work with them. Thankyou for sharing ❤❤

[@halluxtalon6203]

Very interesting history. A truly great contribution to the internet, thank you very much for this.

[@marinoserafini8036]

Perfect explanation above falconry

[@hawkandman]

I am preserving Korean traditional falconry. It is surprising that falconry has been practiced simultaneously in Europe and Asia since ancient times.

[@maudline]

This was fantastic! Thank you so much

[@juliequates9529]

Love this! Can't wait to share this with my kids!

[@ArtistMusician]

[@gregorywojtera7283]

[@mattsilver2861]

Brilliant video

[@OEWNRKandFriends]

Really fascinating! Beautiful birds and I'm sure they enjoy their human friends' company :)

[@wickidbloodymetalqueen7901]

Emma 💟s the eagle!!! I wanna hold the bird babies

[@AnnaAnna-uc2ff]

Thank you.

[@Cornerboy73]

Very interesting, thank you 😊

[@fuchsfarben]

Interesting to see falconry history from another spot of the world, compared to our middle European history :) And of course Christianity tried to stump that out too, no fun :'D

[@marinoserafini8036]

Interesting falconry

[@MrRobertFarr]

Very classy.

[@OEWNRKandFriends]

1:27 I figure that bird was like " ' Ok, enough yakking. I wants this hood off and go hunting! ' '' lolol :)

[@TheGryfonclaw]

"The owl was a creature of darkness." *Camera zooms in on the cutest owl ever* Me: "Awwwwww."

[@jomeotrashgod1098]

Ever since i was a kid i wanted to learn falconry i wanted to start at 14 so at 18 i could be a master falconer im 21 today.....one day man one day

[@iconiclust]

How very extraordinary 😌

[@shainazion4073]

If you like Falconry, check out *"Falconry and Me"* on KZbin.

[@MzRage]

Loved this😍

[@woodlandsedge3456]

Can I ask what line you are using on the golden eagle please

[@keerthivasannambiraju955]

I wished that the British got their hands on the Aleto Falcon in the 1500s-1600s. Since Sakers, Lanners, Gyrs are not native to England yet were used in falconry then and now it would have been plain wrong not to use the Aleto.

[@machinegunlament]

ok these outfits are slayyyyy

[@mrssauravdasthakur]

Awww, cuties!!🦅

[@robnewman6101]

Wow.

[@UnHermanoHalconero]

[@NickVenture1]

Nice. Now you still need a horse.

[@RajuYadav-ib5ql]

Koi

[@ManticorePinion]

Poor kites :(

[@josephking1947]

The hypothesis Falconry began as a byproduct of using Hawk's to catch food is nonsensical, it clearly began when humans had created societies, this enabled those with the commodities of time wealth and education the possibilities to keep and train Hawk's.The oldest depiction of a falconer is a king from Sumaria. The first book on natural science and Falconry was produced by the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick ll .

[@EmilyHarp]

Thanks for the great information!!
