Annapolis, MD - Join Maryland Department of Natural Resources for an Introduction to Falconry event!
Ever dreamed of working with birds of prey? Curious about the ancient art of falconry? Join Maryland Department of Natural Resources on Saturday, September 27 for an engaging and informative event designed for adults (ages 18 and older) interested in entering the world of falconry.
Falconry is the sport of hunting wildlife by means of a trained raptor. In Maryland, falconers need a permit from the Department of Natural Resources and lots of specialized training and practice. Participants at this event will learn about the history of falconry, raptor identification, anatomy and care of raptors as falconry birds, falconry bird training, hunting equipment, and much more.
Please note, that while master falconers will bring their birds out for a short demonstration, the majority of this information session is classroom based.
Registration is open now and space is limited! Registration closes September 12. Participants will be selected via a lottery system and selected participants will be notified between September 17 and 19.
