With help from Jester the European Eagle, Vomit the Vulture, Hazel the Harris Hawk, Dick and Dom the Lanner falcon duo, Lightening the Peregrine Falcon and Twilight the Barn owl creating a spectacular performance not to be missed.

Simon puts the birds through their paces, demonstrating their unique skills and flying the birds as well as involving the children making it educational as well as fun.

During the shows, Alec gives three children from the audience an experience, They are each given a dummy bunny which they run as fast as they can. While they are running Simon flies Hazel the Harris Hawk who soars through the sky and swoops down onto one of the dummy bunnies taking the bunny with him up into the air.
