What we will do
The appointment is 10 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Urgnano (BG). Awaiting us will be the Animal Keeper Guide who will accompany us on this adventure!
Having gathered all the participants, we will reach theraptor area generally closed to the public. Here there will be a short introduction of about 10 minutes, during which the guide will provide all the useful information for a carefree experience. He will not fail to introduce us to our adventure companion, the bird of prey with which we will 'take flight': this is generally a Harris's buzzard , but depending on the number of participants, other species may also be used.
And after a flight demonstration, it's time to don the falconer's glove and become the protagonist: we will try to fly and call the bird of prey to our fist, interacting directly with this fascinating creature of the sky!
