A passion for the
fascinating world of
falconry
About:
From an early age Nigel Hawkins
worked on farms, at the age of 13
he started working at a local clay
pigeon shooting ground, gaining
extensive knowledge about the
countryside and rural pursuits.
After visiting game fairs he soon
became interested in falconry
and joined a local club. After
witnessing his first falconry day
in the field he was hooked and
purchased his own hawk.
Falconry is now a huge passion
that envelopes his whole life,
which led Nigel to run a small
falconry business that allows
clients to witness hawks flying free
on their own private session.
