Title: How falconry shaped the English language
Post by: Shaky on 24-May-17, 07:16:33 PM
During the 16th century, a rather notable amateur falconer named William Shakespeare became enamored of falconry. The playwright loved training birds of prey so much that he began adding falconry references to his plays.
