The Raptor Demonstration - a quick overview of falconry and the birds of prey show.
Spectacular birds of prey demonstrations. What makes them so special?
It is the bond between falconer and the birds of prey, the mutual trust and respect. It is the passion the falconer has for the raptors. You are vitness to this interaction of man and beast. The falconer lets the birds fly free and they will surprise from all angles, sometime they even surprise the falconer.
This because they are clever, sly and fast on the wing or in the case of the owls, just plain lazy.
The birds in free flight perform stunning flights sometime shooting over your head or between you and your coffee cup. They also come and visit you at your table, just to see what you look like.
During a Falconcrest birds of prey show several different species of raptor will be flown, and you will see the different hunting techniques used by the different birds of prey. As this is all happening the falconer will give detailed information about the birds of prey.
Birds of prey are generally lazy and will only fly if they really have to! So don't forget to bring your camera! Nowhere else can you get so close to free flying birds of prey. Birds of prey demonstrations are an exceptional moment for some outstanding picture taking.
