Falconry Displays

Happy New Year!

Well 2020 is here – incredible – time marches on! We had a good festive season having worked on Christmas Day and then Boxing Day – but still plenty of time to enjoy the holiday period.

The main change for this year ahead is a slight change in format for shows in that the two shorter demos become one longer one. For afternoon events this works better within the time restricted format and produces a better display. For returning event organisers that are familiar with the old format then it will stay the same in most cases. For the ‘all day event’ of a larger country fayre for example we will still offer the ‘two flying displays’ along with the static display.

We trialled these changes last season and they really worked well.

The year ahead business wise is unknown but as always we hope for the best.

I saw a wild Barn Owl the other day driving near to home – which was quite wonderful – such a rare bird but with nest boxes going up in many places it has made something of return – which is very encouraging. Hopefully I may see it again.

Well I am going to sign off with a nice picture of ‘Bo’ our Eagle Owl flying just before Christmas. Thanks to Paul – a local photographer – for the photo.
