Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son has a passion for falconry and bird training, there are plenty of meaningful and personal gift ideas that can cater to his interests. Here are a few suggestions that he may greatly appreciate:

1. Falconry Experience: Consider gifting him a falconry experience where he can learn firsthand about training birds of prey. Look for local falconry centers or professionals who offer introductory courses or experience days. This will provide your son with an immersive and educational experience that aligns with his passion.

2. Books on Falconry: Expand your son's knowledge on falconry and bird training by gifting him some insightful books. Look for well-regarded titles such as "Falconry & Hawking" by Phillip Glasier or "The Art of Falconry" by Patrick Morel. These books can serve as valuable resources for learning and mastering the art of falconry.

3. Falconry Equipment: If your son is already actively involved in falconry, consider gifting him some high-quality falconry equipment. This might include gloves, hoods, bells, or anklets for his bird. Opt for equipment that complements his existing collection or upgrades his current gear, ensuring that it's of the highest quality and meets his specific needs.

4. Photography Equipment: If your son has an interest in capturing the beauty of birds and their training, consider gifting him some photography equipment. A high-quality camera, lenses, or accessories like a birding blind or tripod can enhance his ability to document his experiences and create lasting memories through photography.

5. Personalized Falconry Gear: Show your son how much you understand and support his passion by gifting him personalized falconry gear. This could include a customized glove with his initials, a personalized leather falconry hood, or even a customized leather bag or backpack to store his equipment. These personalized gifts will not only be practical but also carry sentimental value.

6. Falconry-themed Art: Consider gifting your son a piece of art that celebrates his love for falconry. This could be a painting, sculpture, or even a beautifully framed photograph of a bird of prey. Look for local artists or online platforms that offer falconry-themed artwork, as this can be a unique and visually appealing gift that he can proudly display.

7. Membership or Subscription: Enhance your son's falconry experience by gifting him a membership to a falconry association or a subscription to a falconry-specific publication. This will provide him with access to a community of fellow enthusiasts or regular updates on the latest techniques, news, and events in the world of falconry.

Remember, the most important aspect of a meaningful gift is to show your son that you appreciate and support his love for falconry. Consider his specific interests, needs, and goals while choosing the perfect present, and let your thoughtfulness shine through.

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.”
