Birds of Prey Display 2011
08 May to 30 October 2011
In the heart of the beautiful grounds at Escot, you will find a unique collection of birds of prey.
You are welcome to view the birds in their aviaries where, as well as seeing the birds at close quarters, you can read all about their habitats, diet etc.
During spring and summer, flying displays give visitors the opportunity to see these birds in action.
Escot's Falconer, Michelle Scriven will talk you through the display giving you the opportunity to learn all there is to know about the native and non-native species on display.
The displays are as entertaining as they are educational thanks to Michelle's amazing knowledge and her irrepressible sense of humour!
