In Saudi Arabia, there is no animal more royal, no creature more majestic, and no species more symbolic than the falcon. These predators at the top of the food chain are endowed with supernatural abilities. Their speed is astonishing, making the falcon the fastest animal on the planet. The practice of falconry is an ancient tradition in the Arabian Gulf, and this ancestral art is a manifestation of the respect between the falcon and the falconer.
The Falcons of Saudi Arabia demonstrate the region’s deep admiration and appreciation for this powerful creature and showcase Arabian Falconry as a unique and distinctly Arabian art.
Tracy Gray has been a resident of the Arabian Gulf region for over twenty years and is a falcon and falconry specialist. She is a content creator for Al Kamda Falcons, a breeder and trainer of white gyrfalcons for falconry practice in the Gulf.
