We provide high quality experiences in a fun and friendly way with plenty of “hands on” opportunities with a vast number of birds. We have been providing these experiences for over 30 years. Our experiences are highly recommended and reviewed, they are also hard to be beaten!
As seen on The Yorkshire Vet, Summer Time on The Farm and Apple TV!
Buying gifts from us will help support our conservation work, breeding programs and help towards the upkeep and longevity of TBOPC and all the feathered residents.

Enjoy a wonderful time at Thirsk Birds of Prey Centre whilst getting to know and meet some of our smaller feathered friends.
This exciting addition to your visit runs at 1:00pm and 3:00pm. Two birds will be able to be handled at one of the dedicated handling times. Photographs are welcome and the duration is around 10-20mins. Please book your Meet the Minnie’s Experience on arrival to avoid any disappointment as this experience is very popular.
We have a selection of feathered friends that might take part on the handling experience depending on the centre’s commitments on the day.
Purchase tickets at reception. Tickets are non-refundable. Please arrive at the meeting point 5-10minutes ahead of your handling experience time.
We advise for children to be 4 years old and up to take part on this mini experience
