Throughout the day you will have the chance to ask the knowledgeable staff about anything concerning these magnificent creatures. There will be plenty of photo opportunities to capture a truly unforgettable experience. You will be at the venue for approximately 3 hours in total.

This birds of prey day was amazing the centre is very well run and everybody is so enthusiastic. It was great to be taught how to fly the birds myself that really is an experience. Watching the birds hunt in the fields was superb as they're doing what's natural to them.
