Welcome to the official website of the North American Falconers Association (NAFA).  NAFA is an association of dedicated members who share common views on the welfare of raptors (birds of prey) in nature and in their careful employment in the sport of falconry. For 50 years NAFA has served the falconry community. We welcome you to the world of raptors and invite you to explore the ancient sport of falconry.  Learn more >>>

Our Mission and Purpose: Is to improve, aid, and encourage competency in the art and practice of falconry among interested persons; to provide communication among and to disseminate information to interested Members; to promote scientific study of the raptorial species, their care, welfare and training; to promote conservation of the birds of prey and an appreciation of their value in nature and in wildlife conservation programs; to urge recognition of falconry as a legal field sport; and, to establish traditions which will aid, perpetuate, and further the welfare of falconry and the raptors it employs.

NAFA is for L.I.F.E. Our goals are to develop positive Legislation, share Information, promote Friendship, and ensure the survival of an Environment suitable for falconry.
