A highly recommended visit. Beautiful not for profit centre dedicated to the rehabilitation of these magnificent birds of prey. Delightful staff whose dedication and passion showed through in their warm welcome and informative service. See a great demonstration and wander through the park to see some magnificent birds of prey. Get up close and personal with the gorgeous Boobook owl, great photo opportunity. Well worth the visit.

Very informative raptor display, a chance to get up close and take photos with an owl, and the forest walk was leisurely with informative signs and beautiful birds. The forest is also home to lots of local non raptor birds. We were even graced by a local pair of wild wedge tail eagles during the display soaring high above us. It was a very special day out for the family.
Really can't stress enough the importance to avoid using second generation rat poison to stop secondary poisoning to these beautiful birds.

Do you like birds? Do like birds of prey? If you said yes to ether one of these, your going to love this place, it’s worth aiming for one of there shows. Was great to see the black kites, grabbing food out of the sky. Very entertaining and informative.
Thanks for a great day out. Also happy birthday to the little owl bo was great to get up close.
