🦅 FURY’S FIRST FLIGHT! 🦅

Our newest member of the flying team, Fury the Albidus Goshawk, has taken to the skies for his FIRST EVER FLIGHT with us! 🎉

Watching him take those first confident flights was absolutely incredible, and we couldn’t be more excited to see what the future holds for this stunning young goshawk.

Fury is going to be a very special part of our team, and we’re sure he’s going to become a firm favourite with our visitors. 🥰🦅

This is just the beginning… keep your eyes on the skies, Fury! 💨

Welcome to the team, little man! ❤️

💫 Glowing review 💫

This review sums up this week for us all. Our 3rd school visit of the week with 1 more tomorrow!

Education is at the centre of what we do and seeing all the children’s faces light up and learning about nature and conservation makes us so proud of everyone involved in making York bird of prey centre a success.

Thank you.
