Training birds of prey in the 80's - How hunting with predatory birds looked like
Jemima Parry-Jones was a trailblazer in the movement to protect birds of prey in Britain. Her Falconry Centre in Gloucestershire was in the forefront of captive breeding programmes for these threatened species.

Jemima Parry-Jones doesn't easily fit into anyone's preconceptions about falconry or falconers. Born and brought up amongst birds of prey, she has a down-to-earth directness that has made her a popular figure in falconry circles and in conservation circles around the world.
The film does not attempt to be a guide to the world of falconry or describe the skills in any detail, although inevitably much of its history and its current practice emerge in the course of the film. It is rather a look at falconry today and some of the people who practice it with a special emphasis on Jemima and her work.
Jemima runs with her husband Jo and a team of dedicated workers, the Birds of Prey Conservation and Falconry Centre at Newent in Gloucestershire. The Centre is a focus for falconers around the world because it is here that they run training courses, breed falcons, hawks and eagles as falconry birds and provide an expert fund of knowledge and experience. In the film we see Jemima in the company of other falconers, at the Centre in the training course, at the Game Fair in Scotland, hunting alone in the winter morning near her home with her Harris Hawk and Bramble her black Labrador.
Conservation, with a special emphasis on the conservation of birds of prey is another important theme in the film. Jemima feels it is essential to educate the public and to this end we see her talking to people at the Centre and visiting a school with some of her birds and talking to the kids. The paradox that hunters are often the most concerned about conservation is one of the major issues confronted in the film. The role of the falconer today must be more than that of a trainer of birds and a hunter. They must be aware of the environment as a whole.

CU. Falcon's head. Various shots of falconer, Philip Glasier and some young falconers in the falcon paddock. They look at the Russian eagle and then the falconer goes over and picks up a Lugger Hawk on his gloved hand. Various shots of the hawk being released in the flying field and goes off to perch on log. The falconer swings the 'lure' (a piece of food on the end of a length of string, which he swings around his head). The hawk takes flight and makes several swoops for the lure. MS. Young falconers watching Mr Glasier at work. Various shots of the falconer doing the same as before, but with a Peregrine Falcon this time. CU. He then shows how to hood and un-hood a falcon. Nice close up shots of one of the birds having a bath, more birds seen. Various hots of the falconer and group seated making various types of hawk hoods.

This was my 2nd ever eagle flying experience with Thirsk Birds Of Prey Centre (Falconry UK), and I loved every second of it!
I decided to use my brand new action camera, (Victure 4K Wi-Fi) to film throughout the day, and I’m happy to say that I’m very impressed with the video quality.

Meet Flint the Burrowing Owl
Burrowing owls are closely related to the British little owl, and live in North and South America. They differ from other owls since they are active mainly in the daytime, and the female is smaller than the male.Cotswold Falconry Centre
