Hi there, a friend and I are very keen on hunting of diferent sorts…and recently found an interest in falconry.
Does this course offer the every essentials or just basics for keeping a bird of our own?
Would this course aid me in applying for a license or is the license merely snatch and grab?
Thanks
Matt
