Falconry Day
Red Letter Days Product Information
Get up close and personal with some of nature's magnificent and regal birds of prey. You'll learn all about the art of falconry and have a chance to try it for yourself. You'll spend a full day at the falconry centre, finding out all about the birds and getting plenty of time to experience falconry first-hand. You'll start with a tour, where you'll meet the eagles, harris hawks, falcons and owls and learn what makes a hawk a hawk, a falcon a falcon and an owl an owl. Then you'll get expert tuition in the art of falconry, with time to handle the birds so that you get comfortable with them and they can get comfortable with you. What happens next depends on the time of year: during the game season from September to February, you can take the birds out into the hills hunting for live quarry. Between March and August, you'll go for a 'hawk walk' with the birds, flying them but not hunting (you can always choose this option in the hunting season if you'd rather not hunt). Lunch is included.

Family Falconry Encounter
Red Letter Days Product Information
Let's face it, there are only so many times that the kids are going to get excited when parents say 'Let's go to the cinema!' or 'Let's go to the museum!'. It's time to try something completely different - a trip to North Yorkshire's premier falconry venue, to meet some birds of prey up close. This experience includes the opportunity for everyone to handle four different birds of prey, from an eagle owl to a falcon, and find out what makes a hawk a hawk, a falcon a falcon and an owl an owl. Once you're comfortable with the birds, you'll have the chance to fly some of them - there's nothing quite like the feeling you get when a top predator swoops in to land on your glove. You'll also go for hawk walk, where you'll learn some more about the basics of falconry. And why not take the opportunity to ask your knowledgeable and friendly falconer some questions and have your pictures taken with the birds too. A light lunch for all back at the falcon barn is included.

Full Day Falconry For Two
Activity Superstore Product Information
This is a fascinating introduction to an ancient and intriguing pursuit. See for yourself an extraordinary relationship between man and bird of prey. Falconry was originally introduced as a means of obtaining 'food for the table'. In Medieval Britain birds of prey were often present at grand occasions such as pageants, weddings and jousting tournaments. Seeing these magnificent birds up close is still a very special experience and one which you won't forget. You will be given an overview of the disciplines and history of falconry by one of the country's best falconers, followed by a brief introduction to the husbandry and welfare of birds and the equipment used in falconry. The expert falconers will demonstrate the skills required to handle the birds themselves and discuss the importance of breeding and conservation to help species in the wild survive. In the afternoon you will head off into the countryside for a unique afternoon's sport. Programmes vary depending on the location.

Activity Superstore Specification
You must be at least 16 years old and under 18s should be accompanied by an adult. General fitness is required as there can be a lot of walking involved. Some locations hunt the birds during the afternoon, therefore it is not suitable for the squeamish people. No previous falconry experience is necessary.
