Hi Everyone, over the next year I am looking to begin my apprenticeship in falconry. It has always been something I've been interested in and in June I will be moving to a location that is more suitable for the sport.

Is there a club or anyone in the area of Chautauqua/Cattaraugus county who I could contact for help in getting started in my apprenticeship?

I have been doing my research about the sport and getting started. I am planning on taking my exam in November at the NYSFA annual field meet in Hamilton NY, and I am planning on having everything ready to go (mews, equipment, food source) by the date of the exam.

Any advise is always welcome.

It is a pleasure to meet all of you!
