This was a birthday gift, and we had a brilliant half day experience at the Hill Top Birds of Prey Centre, Llangarron, Herefordshire. In an idyllic setting, it was hands on, which we loved, fun and very informative. Mike, the owner, has a great rapport with both his clients and his feathered friends And getting close to these handsome creatures and seeing just how intelligent they are was really special.
