Raptor Encounter One and half hours Meet The BirdsThree hour session
Walk The WildsideThree hour afternoon session
|
One of the best introductions to raptors that you can find. A falconry taster session, hands-on with our birds of prey.
This course offers a great hands-on experience with a variety of different species and actually flying birds of prey.
This course demonstrates the ability of trained birds and their relationship with their human partners. It’s not a full-on hunting expedition, more a leisurely stroll with falconer and hawk (or hawks).
The ultimate experience for owl lovers this session is an immersion into the lives of these nocturnal beauties.
