Experience Raptors and Falconry

Overview
A GROUP of attendees are given the opportunity for a unique experience into the life of a Raptor with an up close and personal encounter with Hawks, Falcons and Owls.

With the assistance of a licensed Falconer, you will learn the biology, conservation, field identification, traits, behaviors, natural history, and the importance of raptors.

Following a brief instruction guests will be fitted with a gauntlet and join a trained Hawk on a short walk – witness the agility and skill as she flies from perch to perch while swooping back to the Falconer’s gauntlet.

We really enjoyed our Reno Raptors Experience. We'll come again and several friends want to join us. Thank you!

I cannot recommend this experience enough. Kathleen is so warm, lovely, and extremely knowledgeable about raptors. She has a wonderful set up with a quite elegant shaded cabana, padded seats, snacks, and a selection of drinks to enjoy while you learn about and get to observe her raptors up close. She even has a little bin full of necessities such as suntan lotion and wipes. It’s like a little oasis in the desert and it’s clear she put a great deal of thought in to the comfort of her guests. I was really impressed. And there is no way to adequately describe the great pleasure and honor of getting to hold a variety of absolutely magnificent raptors, not to mention then going on a brief walk with a clever and personable Harris hawk. It’s really magical. You can’t go wrong with this experience. Would make an unforgettable couples date or a fun family and friends outing. She was very patient and kind with my two kids (ages 8 and 10). Not good for loud or easily bored kiddos - this is very much an educational experience that requires hands to oneself and respect so as not to overly stress the birds.

Wow...what an experience, I have admired these birds from afar or on TV for so long and having the experience of a Falcon, Owl, Hawk and a baby owl on my arm and/or interacting with me was a remarkable experience The staff was so nice, and made me so comfortable, and the raptors were captivating. I would HIGHLY recommend this to ANYONE coming to Reno, it's a great experience for family, solo, or just a couple people.
