A
PRIVATE SESSION WITH THE OWLS IN THE FIELD.
Your
session begins at 9.30am when you will be met by Rod.
He will take you around the new owl aviaries, and as you
leave this area you will be accompanied by Tiksi, our
Eurasian Eagle Owl, and Tundra, the Snowy owl, and you
will fly them to posts around the field. You will then
collect Inca, the Peruvian Striped Owl from her aviary
and you will fly her to your gloved hand, placing her
gently on the perches. Closely related to the Long-eared
owl, she will demonstrate her flights over long distances
despite her small size, searching for food as she would
in the wild.
You
will then take Nadi, our young Bengal Eagle owl along
the river trail, and enjoy his long low swooping flights
from his high branch to your gloved hand. This is an amazing
experience in a beautiful and natural setting.
