Training with our Black Kites

Young Black Kites, Attenborough and Irwin, have flown free for the first time this week! 😍
This moment is always filled with both excitement and apprehension for the members of our team who have trained the youngsters, in this case Kat and Ben). Attenborough and Irwin were naturals though and are stars of the future to look out for in our displays. Enjoy this behind-the-scenes insight to training birds to take part in our displays.
