A Bucks County organization will be hosting an interactive class on the art and joys of the age-old practice of falconry.

The Bucks County Audubon Society will be hosting an interactive lecture on falconry at their visitors center, located at 2877 Creamery Road in New Hope, on Sept. 26 at 2 PM.

Master Falconer Gregory Wojtera will present a program on the activity, long-regarded as “the sport of kings”.

“Learn about the sport, the natural history and biology of our local raptors, get close up with the birds, and have your questions answered!” the organization said online.

“For an additional fee there are a few spots available for participants to fly a bird, that is, to hold a raptor on your gauntlet as it flies freely to you!”

The organization manages the Honey Hollow Environmental Education Center and offers a wide variety of programs for all ages.

The event is for adults only.
