We booked a half day experience during our trip to Scotland, and I have to say it was one of the main highlights of the entire trip. Graeme was great. He told us so much about the individual birds, and birds of prey as a collective, AND falconry in Scotland. While amazingly interactive you can tell he takes great care not to stress his birds out with the handling or activities. I would highly recommend to anyone remotely interested in birds of prey
My partner and I booked an hour with Graeme and his lovely birds of prey and enjoyed every minute of it! Graeme is friendly and funny and has so many great stories and knowledge on all different types of birds, it was a pleasure to learn from him. We held / let fly falcons, eagles, owls and hawks, I absolutely loved it! The birds are so beautiful and majestic - we took pictures and, with Graeme's direction, amazing slow motion videos ;) and made such great memories here!
I can't recommend this experience enough! We learned so much about birds of prey and I appreciate Graeme's passion and respect for the birds. I knew immediately that I'd chosen wisely going to him for the falconry experience.
Absolutely loved my experience at Strathblane Falconry. Was not expecting it to be anywhere near as amazing as it was. My husband bought me a taster session as a birthday present and it was truly magical. Graeme was very friendly and welcoming and we learned so much from him. Would highly recommend!!!
We booked a group event for photography and it was great. A couple of the birds acted up but we all know the saying don't act with animals and children.it was value for money and it was sunny and hot and our host was great. I will go back again. The price was great too.
This was such a wonderful experience! My daughter and I did a half day and soaked up so much information from Graeme about each bird, each species, injuries, regulations or lack thereof, personal stories, so much interesting information all the while showing how much respect he has for his birds. Worth every penny for all that and being able to hold so many lovely birds flighted to us. Just the coolest experience for those of us who love birds of prey.
