Autumn Timetable * October*
From 15th September we will be starting our Autumn flying displays. We will be reducing the number of birds flown in each of our displays as our summer displays have finished and some of our birds need a well earnt rest also due to the changeable weather conditions.
However, we will still be encouraging our eagles to soar, our owls to swoop and our caracaras to be inquisitive in our two brilliant flying displays.
Autumn Timetable – * October * Open 10:30am – 4:00pm. Last Admittance 3:00pm
Displays 11:30am & 1:30pm.
Closed Every Wednesday.
If you’re planning a visit with us soon, here’s a reminder of our Autumn timetable:
See birds from all across the globe! Enjoy the experience of watching and getting up close to our birds of prey demonstrating their natural behaviour in this intriguing display. You will be amazed as you experience, close up, the incredible skills of our eagles and enjoy seeing pairs of owls demonstrate their ability to fly silently as they skim through the audience. See the Striated Caracara show its preferred colour and our naughty Turkey Vultures skimming over our audience. Watch as our Stellers Sea Eagles take to the sky.
This demonstration is fun for all ages especially children.
All displays are weather dependent and subject to change due to the weather conditions on the day and the centres commitments.
Enjoy a wonderful time at Thirsk Birds of Prey Centre whilst getting to know and meet some of our smaller feathered friends.
