    Default Cheap Falconry based near Reading

    The voucher is only on sale today, but has a 6 mnth life:

    "for £19 instead of £65, get a two hour hands-on group falconry experience at Feathers and Fur.

    Based at Ladds Garden Village near Reading, Feathers and Fur is home to a high-flying collection of birds of prey. They offer the rare opportunity to see these powerful animals dart through the air one minute, and get up close to them the next. The team includes Billie, Tom, Tilia and Ace: a European Eagle Owl, a Harris Hawk, a Common Buzzard and a Peregrine Falcon, to name a few, as well as the centre’s expert falconers.

    Groupon holders can book into an exhilarating two hour session at Feathers and Fur, where they will get the chance to handle birds and fly them free from the fist. In the course of a ‘flying visit’, would-be falconers can also learn how these majestic birds are trained and take a guided tour of the aviary.
