    The staff were so very informative. It was so interesting learning about the birds and their personalitys. Pretty neat that they actually let them fly around the property and do whatever birds do. They didn't have the little show, since the weather wasn't great. We did get to meet some of the birds. My kids loved the whole interaction and being able to pet the birds. Great exhibit to check out while visiting Leeds.

    We watched the birds of prey show and the meet the birds today both were amazing. We loved the way we found out information about the birds and them flying very close to our heads. We love how silent the owls fly. Meeting some of the birds was brilliant, we love the black barn owl a very rare sight and he was sooo soft. My daughter loved Zorro the owl and spent ages staring out an owl (think the owl won). Loved finding out information about the Harris Hawk, who knew that Harris hawks stand on one another like a tower to see over stuff!!! All the handlers were really knowledgeable about the birds and we had a great time. All this is included in your entry fee to the castle.
