Take a stroll with a hawk through 6 acres of nature trail during this fantastic 30 minute experience in Kent.

Bird Of Prey Experience Days: This 30-minute Hawk Walk is a great way to get back to nature, bond with feathered friends, and learn about the ancient practice of falconry. Take a walk through a 6-acre nature trail, learn how to handle birds, and create a connection with a beautiful hawk by feeding it food from your hand!

Your experience will begin at the falconry centre, where you'll meet friendly instructors and your hawk. After a brief introduction to this majestic bird of prey, your instructors will teach you all the basic skills and safety procedures you'll need to take part in the experience. Next, it’s time to begin your journey! You'll start by ambling through the idyllic and leafy 6 acres of nature trail at Coolings Green & Pleasant, while your hawk follows behind amongst the trees. Your feathered friend will fly down onto your outstretched fist to collect morsels of food, proving this to be a true exercise of bonding between two species, and an unforgettable experience for all ages.

This experience will make the perfect experience gift for the bird-lover in your life, or a unique day out in nature with friends.

My sister and I enjoyed the company of an American young lady whose name I have forgot for which I apologise. She spoke with great enthusiasm about the Harris hawk we were flying how they hunted in packs in desert conditions. They had Alpha females similar to wolf packs and were known as the wolves of the sky. The hawk landing on your outstretched arm again and again to take morsels of food was the main experience never to be forgotten.
