Birds of prey

A while back I booked a Groupon Bird of Prey experience. We've used Groupon a few times and have always felt it good value. This one in particular was in Biggleswade and was pretty cheap. If I'm honest we weren't expecting much...

How wrong were we? Turned out to be a really great day. You were able to get really close to the birds, including handling them...
They are incredibly majestic creatures, surprisingly heavy and I also did not realise just how long they live...many live for several decades, often reaching 40 or 50...quite amazing...
