A jess (plural "jesses") is a thin strap, traditionally made from leather, used to tether a hawk or falcon in falconry. Jesses allow a falconer to keep control of a bird while it is on the glove or in training, and allow a bird to be secured on a perch outside its aviary.〔 ==Types== Jesses come in various types: * Flying / Hunting jesses: short jesses without the swivel slit so as to not hamper the hawk as it flies or to snag on things as it moves from perch to perch—mainly to help control the bird while on the glove in the field. Flying jesses are often even smaller and lighter than hunting jesses, and are permanently attached to their anklets so they won't be lost; both types ''may'' have the swivel slit on them, based on the falconers preference, but most often do not. * Mews jesses: long jesses that the hawk wears while it is in a mews or an aviary. * Traditional & Aylmeri: See below. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jess (falconry)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
