BIRDS OF PREY DISPLAYS
Birds of prey have been used for 4000 years now to practice the art of
falconry.
What we at Birds of Prey Displays offer is different - rather than
falconry, we concentrate on the natural behaviour of these magnificent birds, and show eagles, hawks, falcons owls and vultures in the most natural display of its kind!
BEN POTTER
At the age of 14 my obsession with birds became my job and life.
I began to volunteer at a small Yorkshire falconry centre and later was employed full time.
Over the past 12 years I have trained and flown; Hawks, Eagles, Vultures, Kites, Buzzards, Falcons, as well as some more unusual birds such as Ravens, Kookaburras, Pelicans, Serimas and even Ospreys.
The off site display work I did took off in a big way, I even flew a Golden Eagle over York city centre. Last year at the age of 25 I decided to leave where I was and go out alone.
I have a large team of big birds which are not usually seen at off site demonstrations.
They are all free flown every day regardless of the weather conditions, and are at a great standard. |
TV & FILM WORK
We have provided trained birds for many popular TV shows including - Heartbeat, Emmerdale and "At Home With The Braithwaites"
