Lots of exciting things have been happening at the Trust since we last wrote. From new birds on our summer display teams, to lots of babies in our Bird of Prey Hospital and unusual visitors arriving injured seeking medical attention, to name a few!
This time of year is just getting to the end of the baby season with birds of prey, and at the moment resident in the baby rearing room we have a young Black Kite and a young Yellow-billed Black Kite, both of which we hope to train and be able to fly with our main team of Kites in our Valley of the Eagles display.
Some of you may have saw a piece on Spring Watch a couple of months ago about a Honey Buzzard that was found in the solent, brought to us at the Trust and released back into Wales, where there is a known Honey Buzzard population. This bird caused great excitement amongst most of the falconers at the trust as they are quite rare and unusual birds, many of us having never seen one before!!
So while the weathers still nice, come along and see for yourself!
Speak soon
