This is a brand new half day experience involving a brilliant and unusual team of birds. You will get the chance to handle, fly and feed some incredible and different species.
Straight away you will meet some of our amazing birds. You will be given a safety talk and told what to expect. You will then get the chance to handle and fly some of our smaller birds such as Roo the Kookaburra, Ragnar the Raven and some of our smaller vultures.
We will then stop for the 11:30am display, giving you the chance to see some of our other amazing birds free flying.
After the display we will then meet the larger vultures. On your experience our staff will give you an insight into the vulture world also explain about the critical conservation work the centre is taking part in. Final part of your experience is to hand feed and interact with our beautiful White Storks.
