Birds of Prey Ashford, Boughton Lees Hawk Walk - Weekend
£44.99pp
Join our Harris Hawks for an afternoon adventure through the stunning Kent countryside. After meeting your professional falconer, you’ll get straight in and hands on with our wonderful harris hawks. Your falconer will give you a detailed insight into the bird’s physical features, hunting skills and natural behaviours, as well as teaching you the basic handling skills you will be using throughout the afternoon. Once your initial insight has concluded, it’s gloves on and time for you to take charge of these magnificent birds. You’ll be taken into the beautiful countryside where you’ll have the chance to see what our hawks are truly capable of. As the hawks fly majestically, following you from tree to tree, it’ll be you calling them to the glove to feed. Finally, you’ll finish up by returning back to your original meeting point for questions and photos before heading home. (Experience Approximately 2 hours long) We suggest bringing a pair of sturdy waterproof shoes with you for the day. Absolutely no opentoe shoes on the day.
