Its April, everyone - Spring is on its way!

Today we're going to start the "rewind-clock", and speak to the fundamentals of what equipment is needed to get started on the journey to becoming a Falconer.

As we take down old, incomplete content, and replace it with new material, its important to understand such things as "What makes a good gauntlet?", "does it matter what swivels I use?", and other similar questions.

Join Jo as she covers the first 4 items you'll need to get started!

Your guide is Journeyman Falconer Joanne Bentley, a practitioner with over 15 years experience in the handling and schooling of birds-of-prey, and her support-team of assistants including Joseph Norris, Andrew & Megan Lemon, Chris Wright, and Bruce Lane.

With light-hearted humour and a gentle, informational approach, Jo will guide you in understanding the techniques of “winning” one’s Feathered-companion - first in earning their willingness to work with us, then - in our case - to work for the eye of the camera.

Jo's desire is to inspire established and new participants, wildlife enthusiasts, birders, and the wider public. This passionate Journeyman Falconer seeks to inform and introduce humanity to the intangible “living human-heritage” (UNESCO 2010) to which every one of us may lay claim through the Art of Falconry.

Thank you for watching!
