  • Episode 2 is here and in this instalment we are at Highclere Country Show 2023! can you get much cooler than falconry at Downton Abbey? Lincoln the Bald eagle did his first ever public flying displays this year at Highclere and i am so happy with him. Although we have not been uploading regularly we have been constantly filming, all the training of the birds, the training of ourselves in preparation for the show season, the work we do such as educational falconry visits, bird of prey pest control, falconry displays, and the organising of this years British Falconry and Raptor Fair. it is a huge honour to be asked to organise and run The British Falconry and Raptor Fair, and this video just does not show off the immense amount of work gone into and event of this scale. And there is so much more going on that will appear in future episodes, so if you enjoy this and have not already, make sure you are subscribed!

    Great video! I hope you get your birds back. I'm your big fan. I love your videos, I always learn something new. Thank you for that and keep going.
    Sending love and support, Caroline.

      Thank you Caroline, I have a lot of filming planned over the quieter winter to make sure there’s plenty to watch throughout next year!

    I had the pleasure of being at Highclere show watching your bird of prey display. I found it very interesting and informative so keep it up. I have flown birds of prey for well over 30 years but only ever kept two birds at any time so I’m very aware of how much time and energy goes into training and flying them. If these birds were not happy and in a good quality 😮environment they would not thrive. You have obviously accepted that something was wrong but have taken the appropriate measures. Don’t beat yourself up and move on . Watched all your videos and enjoy them immensely . I have also learned a lot of new stuff from watching them. Keep it up young fella.👍

    Whats the old saying? "never work with animals or children" sorry to ear about your problem with the nebulous complainer touch of jealousy I reckon, anyway chin up and keep on keeping on

      For some reason I offer school visits meaning I have to work with both at the same time, I could really do with CZcams picking up so I can just hide in a field by myself making videos 😂
      The expert the council brought in said it’s probably because my business is growing and doing well, someone just wanted to try and knock me down a peg but that didn’t work

      Well it did work because you had to get rid of some of your birds
