Falconry Experience
This session is aimed at people with a natural curiosity for birds of prey. This is a lovely basic introduction to Falconry and birds of prey that is based around the variety of birds that David and his team have. The experience can be quite light-hearted or used to give a more serious insight into the way hunting hawks are trained and exercised. This is very hands-on with guests flying a variety of different birds of prey.
