Our Spring flying displays start from 18th March to 7th July. Our Autumn flying displays start 15th September to 31st October.
We have one of the largest collections of flying birds in the North. The centre is home to around 100 birds from 50 different species from around the world which enables us to fly an amazing variety of birds in each of our daily free flight displays. All set in in our beautiful Yorkshire countryside. We fly a selection of owls, vultures, eagles and kites to name but a few of the different species that call the centre their home.
During our 35-40 minute flying display you can expect to get very close to our fantastic birds as they swoop, dive and soar over your head. Witness the heaviest species of eagle in the world take to the sky, marvel at the silent flight of the graceful barn owl and appreciate the beauty and importance of the vulture species to our world. Our passionate and knowledgeable bird staff will provide a light-hearted and informative commentary throughout the flying display.
We have a large selection of display birds to rotate through our flying displays, we normally will fly a selection of owls, eagles, vultures and some of the more unusual birds too.

11:30am, 1:30pm and 3:30pm (1st April till 30th September)

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.
Runs 1st October – 31st October at 1:30pm
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.
