Unforgettable Bird of Prey Adventures in Lillington, NC
Welcome to Hawk Manor Falconry, where the 4,000-year-old tradition of falconry comes alive in the heart of North Carolina. Led by Master Falconer Chip Gentry, we offer authentic educational experiences with magnificent birds of prey that will create memories to last a lifetime.
Hawk Manor Falconry Mission Statement
At Hawk Manor Falconry, our mission is to preserve, protect, and share the ancient art and tradition of falconry for generations to come.
We believe falconry is more than a sport—it is a centuries-old partnership between people, birds of prey, and the natural world. Protecting that heritage and helping others understand its importance is part of our responsibility as falconers.
Our goal is to provide a welcoming place where people of all ages can learn about falconry and experience the incredible birds at the heart of this tradition. Through education and personal encounters, we give our guests the rare opportunity to see birds of prey up close and personal, learn about their remarkable abilities, and develop a greater appreciation for these magnificent animals.
At Hawk Manor Falconry, we believe that when people have the opportunity to experience a bird of prey firsthand, they gain more than knowledge—they develop a connection. Through that connection, we hope to inspire respect for raptors, conservation, responsible falconry, and the preservation of this age-old tradition.
Our mission is simple: Educate. Inspire. Preserve. Protect.
