The biggest, loudest, meanest eagle we have! And she knows how to steal the show 🦅

Steppe eagles originate from Asia and migrate to Africa, they live in mountainous regions hence their name..Steppe! They were once our most numerous eagle but numbers have been declining over recent years due to things like electrocution from power lines and persecution. The RSPB is working hard with international organisations to help combat their decline 💪

Owl-tober! 🦉👻

The busy summer days have come to an end but we haven’t slowed down here! We still have plenty of session available for you to meet our ‘spookiest’ birds.

Owls are often associated with wicked and evil ways 🦉 This is most likely due to the fact that they stalk the nighttime hours with their silent flight and ‘creepy’ shrieks and hoots 👻

Photography Workshops 📸

What a beautiful autumnal day for our photographers to capture some beautiful shots of our collection! led by .james.photos this small group met and photographed native and non-native birds of prey on our piece of countryside for the day. Learning how best to shoot in different locations, light and movement. It always a joy to see the results 🙌

It’s starting to feel very autumnal, and Fletcher our Tawny Owl was captured feeling the vibes on our photography day 🦉🍂

Tawny owls are the ‘twit-twoo’ callers and often get associated with autumn and the spooky season but they’ll call all year round because they’re so territorial!

One of Britain’s small falcons, these little beasts can weight up to 280g but don’t let their size fool you! They can really pack a punch in their tiny talons and catch prey like mice, shrews and voles!

Iconic due to the book/film ‘Kez’ it’s because of the beloved kestrel that Andrew (head falconer) began falconry in his boyhood! So we do have a soft spot for them ♥️

A double catch 💥💥
Our Harris hawk is quite good at catching treat mid-air but sometimes he may miss….this slowmo really shows us how keen he is to catch his dinner and with some acrobatic twists and turns in the sky, he catches it the second time with success!
