Falconry is the most sophisticated form of bird watching. This Sport of Kings uniquely offers falconers a chance to see hawks, falcons and eagles do what they were created to do — chase wild quarry. Additionally, falconers do more than simply observe hawks hunting; they actively participate in the adventures. Those adventures and the bonds formed with the birds of prey prompted this book. A Sophisticated Form of Hawk Watching is a collection of falconry stories showing many aspects of how falconers practice this ancient sport in the modern age. These stories cover a broad spectrum of experiences and emotions falconers encounter in this sport: Joy, excitement, fear, pain, satisfaction, anticipation, relief, laughter and love all flow from our relationships with these wonderful creatures. The 25 chapters share stories of young love, sheer bravery, companionship, loss, jackrabbit hawking, dog attacks, hawk trapping, field meets, dilemmas, conservation and much more. Some historical firsts are detailed too including: the invention of car-hawking, and the creation of removable anklets — that are now used around the world and featured in most falconry supply catalogs. Unique raptor writings also appear in these pages such as: a historical fiction piece of Genghis Khan hunting with golden eagles, spring raptor trapping and banding at Whitefish Point, a history-making rescue of a bald eagle with West Nile Virus and several zany dog stories in “Terrier Dreams.” Other notable stories include: • “A Falconry Parable,” sharing humorous insights into all “species” of falconers, • The fun “Jackrabbit Rescue,” story showing a falconer’s respect and compassion for prey, • “On Wings Like Eagles,” presenting Isaiah 40:31 from a falconer’s unique viewpoint, • “Dialogue 101,” detailing an interesting conversation with a not-so-casual onlooker, • “Hoodwinking,” displaying a humorous take on hood-making, and • “Animal Rights — Christian Morals,” tackling a presumed conflict between Christian principles and hunting. Some of the chapters are updated from previously published articles and many stories are new works, such as “Fine Weather for Squirrels.” These stories give you the inside look at a falconer’s joys, trials and adventures. Enjoy the journey.
