Had a super day today at Loch Lomond Bird of Prey Centre, so many beautiful birds to see. The flying display was fantastic too.
If you're ever in the area I'd definitely recommend visiting, below is a small selection of shots I got.

Glad to have this wee guy back out flying and ready to join the team again. Biggles our tawny owl has enjoyed his time off and is now ready to join us on our displays and experiences.

You would think Orla our female golden eagle had a hard day today. Fortunately for her no work today so she could relax and chill out like any happy, content and comfortable bird does.

Looking for something to do this weekend. Then why not head down and join us for one of our flying display or both.
Birds of Prey can tuck their bodies to fit through small gaps in a number of ways as seen in this clip from Duke.
Techniques for Navigating Tight Gaps.
Wing Tucking/Morphing:
When encountering a narrow opening, birds of prey often fold their wings inward, effectively reducing their wingspan to the width of their torso.
Vertical Orientation:
If a gap is narrow but tall, birds may rotate their bodies vertically to fit, rather than passing through horizontally.
Active Braking:
When gaps are smaller than their outstretched wingspan, they often brake before the opening and increase their wingbeat frequency to maintain control.
High-Speed Passing:
Some birds of prey, such as goshawks, can fly through narrow, complex spaces (like tree branches) at high speed, relying on precise navigation rather than slowing down.

Kiko our barn owl has been getting very lazy with her hovering lately, staying low and going straight to the gloved hand hidden behind my back. So we have been doing some training with her to get her to hover better and it’s slowly staring to pay off.

RED FOOTED FALCON - Falco Vespertinus.
This little falcon is found through Eastern Europe and Asia and winters in Africa. It is a regular visitor to Western Europe and the UK. Both the male and female are very colourful birds, this is Snap our female. The male is a blue/grey colour.
A varied diet of insects, amphibians, birds, reptiles and small mammals. The red footed falcon can be seen to hover, very much like the Eurasian Kestrel.
Unfortunately this little species is classed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List.

We have been working very hard behind the scenes on something for our summer displays. This has been in the pipeline for sometime but we can finally reveal to you “Hamish” our new white stork ( Ciconia Ciconia ).
Training has gone really well and he has settled into life here at the centre brilliantly. We are still working with him behind the scenes but he is now in his aviary for everyone to greet.
White storks breed within Europe and winter in Africa and South Africa, making them a long distance migrant. White storks will eat insects, amphibians, fish, reptiles, small animals and birds.
Thanks to conservation projects such as the white stork project, these magnificent birds are once again in uk skies.
