Falconry Experience Days
We provide a wide range of experiences which can be given as
a fantastic alternative gift for any occasion. All our experience
days can be purchased as gift vouchers online, a maximum of six
participants and six non-participating guests.
One Hour Experience 
This is a great introduction into falconry and birds of prey,
you will have the opportunity to handle and fly one of our magnificent
birds of prey to your gloved hand. Your instructor will also describe
the bird being flown in detail including its natural habitat and
hunting behaviour.
(All vouchers are valid for 12 months and posted to you free
of charge.)
Half Day Experience
This experience is the next step up from our one hour experience
allowing you to fly a variety of birds of prey including hawks,
falcons, and owls. Your instructor will describe each bird in detail
and about its behaviour in the wild as they are being flown. This
is a fantastic experience that will not be forgotten.
(All vouchers are valid for 12 months and posted to you free of
charge.)
Full Day Experience
This is definitely our most popular experience and is a real hands
on day. We start the day with tea and biscuits and a talk on the
history of falconry and a description of some of the magnificent
birds that are used. You will then learn how to tie the falconers
knot. Then guided by our professional falconers you will have the
chance to make some of the leather equipment worn by the birds.
We then move on to the weighing of birds of prey, explaining why
and how we do this and then allowing you to weigh a bird for your
self. Then we are off to the local pub which serves excellent food.
On our return we prepare the Harris Hawks for the afternoons flying
and set off into the fields were we have over 1000 acres to use.
On our return you will be given a flying demonstration of our Saker
Falcon and our very large European Eagle Owl. This really is a wonderful
gift for anyone which will definitely not be forgotten.
(All vouchers are valid for 12 months and posted to you free of

The Owl Encounter 
This experience is for anyone who has a passion for owls. You will
handle and fly a variety of owls from our Sunda Scops Owl weighing
three and a half ounces to our European Eagle Owl weighing over
six pounds. Your instructor will describe each owl in detail including
its natural habitat and hunting behaviour. A truly unforgettable
experience lasting 2 hours.
(All vouchers are valid for 12 months and posted to you free of
charge.)
Eagle Experience Days
The annual gathering of eagles is a magnificent event where you
have the chance to come and witness the worlds aerial giants in
full action in true eagle country. This event is held in the Grampion
mountains of Glenshee, Scotland where you will encounter the Golden
Eagle, Black Eagle, Tawney Eagle and many more.
After the adventure of a trip up the glen to 3500 feet in the land-rovers,
you will see the Eagles being
prepared for flight. The eagle is then released into the wind where
it begins its climb for height. As her vast wing span disappears
to a speck we walk out over the heather in a bid to flush white
hares. You will be awestruck by the sight and sound of these giant
birds of prey as they come crashing to ground in pursuit of their
quary. Please have a look in our Gallery
page for pictures of this event.
