Because it was easier than calling it a falcon? "Falconers" use falcons to hunt. "Hawkers" use hawks (the birds) instead of falcons. A plasterer's pose -- with hawk -- is quite like a hawker's pose. This is, of course, a complete guess.
There is nothing wrong with falconry. Falconry is simply the sport of flying (and keeping) birds of prey. Most birds in falconry have been taken from homes. Falconers do not capture birds to train for two reasons: a) The bird will be used to the wild and catching it's own food. b) The person catching it will proberly be killed :) Hope this helps
