On completion of the morning session we will take you to the on-site restaurant where a choice of meals awaits, (please advise on booking any special dietary requirements). The afternoon session of our Falconry Experience builds on the morning session by showing the traditional application of falconry dating back many thousands of years. Then falconry was about hunting quarry although people who took part were unlikely to rely on it for the regular provision of food.
We take you out into the Cheshire Countryside to experience
nature at its most highly evolved. Escorted by a hawk
that is able to fly free from your glove you will witness
it hunting for itself in the afternoon session of our
Falconry Experience. You take on the role of the falconer
as it is called back to your glove to reinforce the bond
between bird and man.
This is a wonderfully exciting
gift that appeals to everybody
from people who have no experience
of birds of prey, to birdwatchers
and lovers of the
Great Outdoors. Participants
and spectators must be 14 years
or over. |
