Falconry Experiences at Clovelly
For a great group day out, why not try your hand at the most ancient of field sports.
Imagine going for a walk through some of the most stunning countryside in North devon with a trained bird of prey following on, then stooping out of the sky to land lightly on your outstretched gloved hand.
Tim and Tali Smith have forty years of experience between them training most species of birds of prey and owls and can arrange all aspects of falconry from basic handling to hawk walks.
Tim is also a Qualified Lantra Assesor, which means that you would get the best quality tuition with the birds.
For details of special falconry packages and experiences, please see http://site.birdofpreyexperience.co.uk/
or call Tim or Tali on 07903 578326 or email: ostringer@hotmail.co.uk
