bird of prey experiences and owl experience days at baytree owl and wildlife centre

Experience

Home >> Experience

On one of our popular experience days, you’ll be joining one of our expert falconers for an interactive session like no other!

We have a number of sessions tailored towards a range of ages and interests, allowing us to help everyone get the most from their experience with us.

There's no better position to appreciate the raw power and majesty of a bird of prey than at arms length, so our exciting flying experiences offer you a unique opportunity to get up close to a variety of owls and other species!

What’s more, we even hold bespoke photography sessions for those with a more particular interest in what our birds have to offer.
