Henry VIII and falconry

Falconry is the pursuit of small game using either a falcon or a hawk. King Henry VIII wasn't particularly interested in falconry as a young man, but as he got older, Henry VIII's obsession with the sport grew and he pursued the sport across his kingdom. This clip was made as part of HISTORY's Henry Week which featured the premieres of two new shows: Inside The Body of Henry VIII; and Inside The World of Henry VIII.
