Hawking Days - A day to remember
A hunting day with our hawks is a day that you will never forget. Join our Falconers
and become part of a unique team, working with some of the most incredible animals
around. You will meet and handle our trained Harris Hawks and ferrets who will work
with you in well over 1000 acres of beautiful Warwickshire countryside. Experience at
first hand how our animals work to seek out their prey and gain a very privileged
insight into these natural survival skills.
We try to reserve the day for just two guests, as this gives the opportunity for each
of you to handle the birds and build up a relationship with them as the day develops. All
of the time, your Falconer will be there to help, advise and give you an insight into
this 4000 year old art.
During the day you will wear a Gauntlet, or Falconers glove to handle the birds as
they fly from your fist at their quarry. Towards the end of the day you will reward your
bird for it's hard work using specially selected food.
We are dedicated Falconers who fly birds all year round. During the
summer months as well as during the traditional hawking season.
