🗞️ Newspaper appeal 🗞️

We are in desperate need of old newspapers to help us clean our parrot indoor aviaries, bird of prey travel boxes and our isolation units. If you have any old newspapers that you are willing to donate to the centre, they would be greatly appreciated!

Newspapers can be dropped off at the centre between Thurs- Sun between 10am-4pm or can be popped into one of the toilet blocks if it is outside opening hours.

Thank you in advance!

Unfortunately we have had to close the centre today due to the weather conditions. The road coming up to the centre is very dangerous and we don’t want to put customers at risk. This also means that staff can concentrate on looking after the birds and making sure their safe, dry and warm.

The Laughing Kookaburra might have a sweet little face but they are the owners of a very loud voice!

Despite their call sounding like laughter, the meaning behind it is no laughing matter. It’s a territorial call!

This “laughter” is typically used at dusk and dawn to ward off other Kookaburras from their territories.

As they do this is family groups it can really make quite the sound! A fair reason for a group of them to sometimes be called a “Riot”.

Fry here loves to start up a chorus with Stanley, our European White Stork whenever he also demonstrates his territorial display by clattering his beak!

A bird of prey’s beak is a very important tool when eating and is like us using a knife and fork to eat a meal. As a predator, raptors need to break up their prey into consumable chunks and they do so with a specialised beak. The raptor’s curved and sharp beak has evolved to be the perfect tool to pluck, tear, make incisions and even break bones of their prey. This allows them to consume a meal quickly and efficiently and reduces the time that they remain vulnerable in their environment.

Here is Rogue enjoying some rat after a flying session earlier this year.

Unfortunately, the Saker Falcon is an Endangered species due to electrocution, habitat loss, lack of nesting sites and illegal trade.

Conservation efforts in Europe are helping to protect these birds by erect artificial nesting sites, monitoring the species, conserving safe habitats, tagging, and tracking individuals with great success. Prior to this the Saker falcon was on the brink of extinction in Europe and now the current population stands at around 300-500 pairs with 180-200 pairs resident in Hungary owed to the conservation efforts of a few, showing that the species can be helped effectively with the right funding, education, and passion. It is hoped that the same methods can be applied to the Asian Saker Population to save these beautiful birds from extinction.

Here is Zeke our Saker falcon being a fantastic ambassador for his species in our 1pm demo.

Many birds of prey species show sexual dimorphism, which means there are physical differences between the male and females’ appearance of the same species. Unlike many birds, raptors rarely show this difference with their plumage but instead through their size. Female birds of prey tend to be much larger than their male counterparts.

There are many theories to why this reverse sexual dimorphism exists, including the females larger size allow her to better protect the nest, that the size difference means the male and female catch different prey items so there is less competition and the male smaller size allowing him to catch small prey species perfect for bringing back to the nest to feed the chicks.

Here are Dawn and Dusk our Black Chested Buzzard Eagles showing off this significant difference in size!

Happy World Falconry Day!

Falconry is the art of using a trained bird of prey to catch wild prey in its natural state. The practice should always be held to a high standard, hunting on permission land, within the correct season for the quarry and most importantly with respect for the prey. The birds themselves have to be at their physical and mental best to be able to catch wild prey.

Here is Rogue our Red Tailed Buzzard on some of her successful hunts.

The American Kestrel is a capable predator but due to its small size it is often preyed upon by larger animals. To try and avoid becoming a meal, AK’s have two black spots on the back of their heads called Ocelli. These dark patches are supposed to mimic eyes and fool predators into thinking that the Kestrel has spotted them making it less likely to attack.

Snowy owls are perfectly designed to withstand colder temperatures - even all the way down to minus 50 degrees celsius!

This is all thanks to their thick feathering from head to toe! Their toe feathers are even the longest out of all the owls species!

Out of all the birds at the centre, it may surprise you to know that our most prolific hunter is Fry our Laughing Kookaburra! 😂 No insect, spider, worm, amphibian or in this case mollusc is safe when Fry is flying. With a mixture of strong hunting instinct, motion sensitive vision and lighting fast reflexes, he often grabs some side dishes to add to his main meal.

We can’t believe little Oak is twenty years old! Despite his years, Oak will sometimes make a juvenile call when he is out flying. This call is a communication call that fledged owlets use so their parents can keep track of there whereabouts. Oak still makes this call as he is an imprint (hand reared) and treats his falconers like parent figures. In the wild, the parents would stop feeding their young to force them to hunt for themselves, therefore youngsters will stop making this call over time. Oak was never driven away by his “parents” and still gets fed, so retains this call. ——————————————————————- The centre is OPEN Thurs-Sun with flying demos at 11am, 1pm and a Meet the bird (1 bird flying) at 3pm!
