Kids' Introduction for Two to Birds of Prey by from Red Letter Days

Learn all about the ancient art of falconry and try it out for yourselves. You'll find out lots about the birds and will be given plenty of time to experience falconry first-hand. Getting really close to different species like this, you will learn what makes a hawk a hawk, a falcon a falcon and an owl an owl. Then you'll get expert tuition in the art of falconry and have time to handle the birds yourselves to help you get comfortable with one another. Then try it out for real as you fly some of the birds, watching them show off their skills - it's an amazing opportunity to see these dramatic creatures up close and watch their spellbinding flight. Two grown- ups are welcome to join you for free.
