Five Star Gift Ideas

Since your son has a passion for falconry and bird of prey training, there are many gift ideas that can cater to his interests and enhance his love for these activities. Here are a few suggestions:

1. Falconry Experience: Consider gifting your son a unique opportunity to participate in a falconry experience. Many bird of prey centers offer hands-on experiences where he can learn to handle, train, and fly these magnificent birds under the guidance of experienced falconers.

2. Falconry Equipment: Help equip your son with the right tools for his falconry pursuits. Consider purchasing a high-quality leather falconry glove or a falconry hood, which are essential items for training and handling birds of prey.

3. Books and Literature: Expand your son's knowledge and understanding of falconry by gifting him books on the subject. Look for titles such as "The Falconer's Apprentice" by William C. Oakes or "The Falconer's Handbook" by Adrian Walker.

4. Photography Equipment: If your son enjoys capturing the beauty of birds of prey, you could consider a gift that will enhance his photography skills. A telephoto lens or a book on bird photography techniques can be fantastic additions to his camera gear.

5. Falconry Clothing and Merchandise: Show your support for your son's passion with falconry-themed clothing or merchandise. T-shirts, hoodies, or caps with falconry-related designs or quotes can make for unique and personal gifts.

6. Falconry GPS Tracker: For serious falconers, a GPS tracker for their birds can be an invaluable tool. These devices allow them to keep track of their birds while they are out flying, ensuring their safety and providing peace of mind.

7. Falconry Training Courses: If your son is looking to take his passion for falconry to the next level, consider gifting him a training course or workshop. Many professional falconers offer training programs that cover all aspects of falconry, from bird selection to hunting techniques.

8. Bird of Prey Adoption: Support the conservation efforts for birds of prey by adopting a bird on your son's behalf. Many bird of prey centers and organizations offer adoption programs that provide funds for the care, rehabilitation, and release of these magnificent creatures.

Remember, the most meaningful gift is one that reflects your son's interests and passion. By choosing a gift related to his love for falconry and bird of prey training, you are not only showing your support but also encouraging him to pursue his passion further.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
