This was a truly amazing experience and the highlight of my Wales holiday.
Tim’s passion, knowledge and humour made the session feel personal rather than like a scripted tick-box exercise. His genuine love for the birds really came through, and I learned lots of interesting things, even though I have been to quite a few similar experiences before.
The birds were absolutely stunning. I especially loved handling the Harris’s hawk, which Tim kindly let me do twice. Harris’s hawks are particularly special to me, so that meant a lot. Seeing the barn owl up close also took me right back to the first time I ever saw one as a child, when it turned its head to look at me and gave me that moment of pure awe.
Tim also very kindly brought me feathers from some of the birds, which I have added to my collection at home. That was a lovely personal touch and something I really appreciated.
My family all enjoyed the experience too, even those who did not handle the birds themselves. If you are interested in birds of prey, I would strongly recommend Valley View Falconry. It was fascinating, funny, genuine, and has created lasting memories for me and my family
