The Graphic--1909

One of the most amazing things about falconry is that the methods of training and the equipment used has remained virtually unchanged for centuries in almost every country in the world, with the exception of materials now day's are often synthetic instead of traditional leather. The major change has been the breeding in captivity of raptors instead of the tradition of taking eyas and branchers from the wild, or trapping adult birds with "pigeon decoy's."
