Falconcrest was invited to show and share educational information about birds of prey. The falconers selected a variety of birds of prey suitable for a falconry demonstration as well as for display. Besides a cold and rainy day, the hothouse was the perfect place for birds and students to get better aquanted. While the falconers flew with the birds of prey, Frans explained to the students about the birds of prey, their traits and habbits and other interesting facts. After this the students were allowed to hold a bird of prey on the gauntlet is they dared. It was great experience for all.
