Ian is an incredible man! Clearly loves the beautiful birds. He created a personal 2 and a half hour experience for us. He introduced us to the crew sunning on their perches and then had us fly 2 owls and 2 hawks. He is a skilled and patient man. But what is abundantly clear is his passion and love for what he does! Thank you so much for our incredible time with you and the gorgeous birds. Gen and Peter…

We spent the night at the lodge and in the morning we met Ian to start our experience. You could tell he really loved the birds and told us stories about them before we got started. I planned ahead and brought bug repellant. This morning was the only time during our entire 3 week trip that we needed it. Ian also had some and it took about 30 minutes to stop getting bitten up. Ian took us to the front lawn of the lodge to fly one owl and one hawk. We each had two turns with each bird. It was spectacular. Between the views and the experience, I'm so glad we book this falconry. We didn't want it to end and kept talking about how we wanted to go back for the rest of our trip!…

What an amazing time we spent today with the sweetest owls in the world. The experience began with Ian introducing us to all the birds, including a number of raptors who posed beautifully for photos. Then we went to the lovely lochside lawn of the lodge to fly the two owls, Flash and Jeannie, who, fantastically, loved to be stroked and petted. They clearly enjoy the interaction with humans and Ian did a marvelous job of describing their personalities, habits and features. We have done a number of falconry experiences and nothing came close to this, exciting as they were. How incredible to stare out over the water and enjoy the scenery, with the companionship of an owl on your arm. Highly, highly recommend this; it’s one-of-a-kind. Thank you, Ian. …
