A few members of our local camera club had the weekend in Rotorua. We visited Wingspan - a National Bird of Prey Centre. 'The Goal of Wingspan Birds of Prey Trust is to restore New Zealand birds of prey into our daily lives and secure their long-term future through practical research based conservation action and education…'
We were treated to a flying display and educational talk about the raptors that live in NZ. Here is @julzmaioro taking a turn to feed this little guy. They eat up to 30% of their body weight a day! This is the link to their website http://www.wingspan.co.nz
Well thank you ... It was an amazing place to visit and I really did not expect to be brave enough to have a falcon on my arm ... but it was an amazing experience ... a fantastic weekend ..
