What an experience!! Our hawk walk was a highlight of the year for our family. Adam was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Our boys had lots of questions and Adam took the time to make sure they were heard. We are all still talking about our time with Adam and the birds. It was so thrilling! I highly recommend this for everyone.

Seeing and holding these birds of prey, nose to beak, on my arm was like no other experience. Adam has trained them so well that I had no fear. While teaching us how falconry is used today, he put raw meet in my gloved arm and the hawk landed smoothly. Loved every minute of it. And he took wonderful professional photos!!! More

Adam was super friendly and his bird knowledge was very impressive. He answered all of our questions and educated us so much. 10/10 Can’t wait to do this again! More
