Origin

This proverb has its origins in medieval falconry, where a bird (falcon) in hand was more valuable than two in the bush (the prey). The earliest known usage in English is in the 15th century in "The Life of St Katherine" by John Capgrave. In its exact current form, the first use was in 1670 in "A Hand-book of Proverbs" by John Ray. Variations and alternatives of the proverb, with the same meaning, are found since ancient times.
