Spend half 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 half day course gives you the opportunity to share in this knowledge and also to interact 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.

My wife bought this bird of prey experience for my birthday, it was thoroughly enjoyable and I have some amazing photos of these majestic birds.
Jake Warmley,
I've always been fascinated by birds of prey so when I got given the voucher for this falconry day I was really excited. My experience was wonderful from start to finish. I loved the tour of the centre and it was incredible to see some of the birds in flight and get them to land on my arm.
