Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm NEW Wings of Wonder birds of prey flying display

About

This Easter prepared to be wowed by Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm NEW ‘Wings of Wonder’ flying display and a brand new specially designed birds of prey enclosure. Launching on Saturday 6th April with Eddie Eagle swooping in to mark the occasion, the new display will feature indoor and outdoor flying displays from some amazing feathered friends including Mr Harry, a majestic Golden Eagle.

 

Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm will add the brand new bird of prey enclosure to its existing animal collection, which will home more than 15 winged wonders including Eagles, Falcons, Hawks and Owls.

 

A selection of these stunning birds will star in the new Wings of Wonders Birds of Prey display, where visitors will be wowed by spectacular birds of flight. With two free shows daily, each flying display will show off the birds amazing natural abilities. With the eagles displaying the dizzy heights they can reach in an instant, whilst the falcons incredible speed and agility chasing ability will be on show. Expect up close encounters, as wondrous birds fly overhead.  

 

Headed up by specialist falconer, Nathalie Denolf who recently joined the zoo from Belgium. She brings extensive feathered knowledge along with a number of beautiful birds, which combined with the zoo’s existing collection, creates the impressive display of birds in flight.

 

Special guest, Eddie the Eagle, will take part in the display during the launch on Saturday 6th April. Eddie is most famous for his 70m and 90m ski jumping at the 1988 Olympics in Calgary. Whilst Eddie came 58th, he personified the Olympic spirit for his determination to represent his country without any form of funding. His British record remains unchallenged. The self-titled film based on his life, came out in 2016 with Taron Egerton as Eddie and Hugh Jackman as his trainer.
