Overview
Fascinated by Owls and based in West Yorkshire? This illuminating Owl Encounter experience, hosted at an outdoor aviary centre in Pontefract, will get you closer to them than ever before! Your two hour experience will be spent with the owls' owner, breeder, trainer and feeder, Kira, who is incredibly passionate about them and the other birds of prey that are in her care. She has a very gentle disposition and it's evident from the moment you meet her what a unique bond she has with the owls and how this comes across in their working relationship. Kira has a mixture of both captive bred owls, and rescued owls who she has helped nurse back to full health (she actually studied raptor rehabilitation in South Africa, so she is very knowledgeable on this). Amongst the owls you'll meet on this exclusive session, which you'll also get the opportunity to fly, handle and feed are Tilly the Barn Owl, Bungle the Eagle Owl and Libby, the African Spotted Eagle Owl. You'll learn lots about them too on what promises to be a feather ruffling experience of fun!

Kath
Brilliant experience. Kira was very knowledgable and friendly. Her birds were beautiful characters. It was a hot day for the birds so they were unwilling to fly far but they did fly to us and happily sat on our arms while we chatted and fed them. Well definitely do this again.
Sheila Briscoe
Lovely company. Lots of information. Birds were amazing. And so well looked after.
Christine Spedding
Our visit to KL Falconry greatly exceeded our expectations. The owner was very knowledgeable and helpful and we had a fantastic morning with the birds of prey. We would recommend this to any true wildlife lover.
Julie Horne
The bird of prey experience was ok. The problem wasnt kira the handeling lady. It was the weather. The birds were too hot. We only had an hour and no flying because of the heat. A bit dissapointing really. But i dont know how it cud have been sorted because noone cant change the weather.
Ray Nota
A great day out getting up close and personal to the owls and hawks and Kira was a very knowledgeable falconer with a love and passion for her birds that really shone through

What fantastic experience this was, four beautiful owls, I managed to have three of them sitting on my arm, the fourth owl Eagle owl was a little bit sceptical of me, so Kiri kept him on her arm. I learnt so much about the owls from owner Kira Wild, she is very knowledgeable and passionate about the owls and all birds of prey, the experience lasted about 90 minutes and was held in the woodland, I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who has an interest in birds of prey. Just one tip, make sure you cover up your legs and arms, there were a lot of midges flying around the woods, probably due to the hot sticky weather on the day.

Incredible experience Kira is amazing so warm and friendly and hugely knowledgeable and experienced, a real passion for what she does that just adds to the experience. Birds were absolutely beautiful and the whole management of holding them for my mum in law was done really well and made her feel really comfortable. We will be booking more with Kira for sure.
