"Thank you for
arranging the falconry morning - I was so glad I didn't miss it. I have
seen a lot of flying displays over the years and enjoyed every one, but
Saturday morning was very special and an experience to relive again and
again in the memory. I felt very privileged to be part of such a small
group and have so much interation with the birds - I never thought I would
be nose to beak with such a large eagle! I loved the way Ben shared his
knowledge with us and ensured we all got to handle the birds. His
dedication to them is a joy to see and I wish him all the best with his new
venture.
Thank you again. Trish"
"The morning we spent with Ben and his birds of prey
was quite magical. It is a real privelege to be so close to these beautiful birds and to see them flying in the lovely surrounding countryside. Ben has a deep rapport with his birds and it is obvious, from watching him work with them, that he cares for them a great deal. I highly recommend this experience. Peter" |
