5 DAY HAWK/OWL MANAGEMENT COURSE
This course is aimed at those who have little or no experience in the art of falconry but lots of enthusiasm and a passion for birds of prey.
The course is spread over five days and aims to guide you through the mine field of information and legislation you need to be aware of before getting your bird.
At the end of your course we would expect you to be confident around but respectful of all birds of prey.
We would also expect you to not only know which bird you want! But what bird is best suited to you and your circumstances.
The course covers, choosing your bird, legislation, husbandry, training, weight management, diet, health, telemetry, essential equipment, first aid, suppliers and much more.
We can also provide you with registration and assessment for Lantra’s beginning falconry award.
So if you are looking to get a bird soon or in the near future this is the course for you.
Your week will start with a tour of the centre and an introduction to the birds.
There will be some class room work and lots of practical hands on work with the birds.
your final day will be spent putting in to practice everything you have learnt over the previous four days from food preparation to free flying our birds
