Spend a day with some of the most magnificent creatures on the planet!
Falconry techniques have been refined over centuries and passed down from many falconers. This full day course gives you the opportunity to share in this knowledge, and also to interact with these magnificent birds of prey up close before learning how to fly them to the fist. These birds are not trained to do tricks they simply mimic what comes naturally to them. All the birds on show will display their natural instincts to soar, quarter, pounce and mantle.

An awesome day, the trainers really know their stuff and it was very exciting having the birds of prey fly to the fist.
