Fens Falconry - a Fantastic Afternoon! Attended today for a gifted Xmas present. Signed in and offered drinks on arrival, then introduced to our 'Bird Staff' Bell and Matty. Shout out to Orzo for being the days soundtrack! 🥰 First hour was meeting all the birds and learning about their species etc. We went on to handling which was amazing and having a more one to one with the handlers, asking questions etc. We were able to handle one eyed Wensleydale the Ural Owl and Orion the Saker Falcon, both beautiful birds. To finish the experience we went to the display ring and with a range of birds, saw how they were exercised with more handling. Seeing the Peregrine falcon display really ended the day brilliantly! The birds all looked so well looked after and were not forced to do anything! Would 100% recommend to any age!

Wonderful all day experience. Our guide/handler, Leigh (spelling unknown) was excellent. The knowledge, patience, and expertise of this staff member made our experience. We were able to see and feed numerous types of birds. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the birds fly and demonstrate hunting behaviors. The spaces indoor and outdoor are nice. Highly recommend visiting for long it short time. We'll definitely be coming back.

My sister bought me an experience day for my birthday this year and we had an amazing day! Belle was a brilliant guide with so much knowledge, and you could really tell that both staff and volunteers care a lot about the birds and their conservation. I definitely recommend visiting!

Myself and my son had a group experience day today. Thank you to Belle and Matty for their patience and kindness with my son who has Autism. Both are very knowledgeable and we found out lots of interesting facts about the birds. The centre is very clean and the birds are so well cared for. I can’t wait to come back.

Amazing private day experience. We saw far more birds than I expected and had a wonderful time with Leigh. They were incredibly knowledgeable and accommodated us very well. Lunch was brilliant, more than enough food for us. We had a 5 year old along for the day and he had an amazing time, he was included in the handling and was able to do everything we did, which was very impressive. He also had a specials kids lunch box provided, which I didn't ask for or expect so that was lovely. I feel as though our needs as a group were really thought about and we had a wonderful time.
