A Private Hawk Walk for Two - 60 mins Co. Mayo: Fascinating Facts

Falconry was a popular sport and showed the high status of the nobles during the medieval Europe, the Middle East and East Asia. In Japan falconry is called Takagari. Because of eggs and chicks of the birds of prey were rare and expensive, and training a hawk takes a great deal of time, money and space, this was therefore only a sport for the upper class. In Japan, falconry was restricted to only high class where based on samurai class, you could get to hunt with falcons.
