A likely contender for the Most Beautiful Captive-bred Falcon at the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition.
Adihex falcon competition categories include: pure gyr, gyr peregrine, three quatro saker and pure gyr male.
Birds are judged for feather symmetry and colour, head, body and leg detail and general aesthetic appearance, as well as their general health.
A falcon makes sure the camera is getting its best side at Adihex. Judges also consider weight and body measurements.
The competition attracts falconry enthusiasts from all over the world. Adihex has a presence in more than 50 countries and in 2019 attracted 115,000 visitors.
Falcons have a long heritage in Bedouin culture. For hundreds of years they have been used to hunt for native fowl.
By popularising ownership of captive-bred falcons through its competitions, Adihex seeks to reduce pressure on wild populations.
Falconry is a popular hobby and proud tradition among Emiratis of all ages.
After not taking place in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, Adihex returns for 2021, running from September 27 to October 3 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.
