点评:My husband and I did the Owl encounter, with Sophie as our handler/guide. It was an incredible experience! We had a good chance to look around the centre and see all the birds first of all, and it's clear how well looked after they all are, and there's so much information about both the individual birds, and their species.
While walking around, we met the owners - who were incredibly friendly, welcoming and informative - as well as meeting all their beautiful dogs who accompained us around the centre (much to our delight).
During the owl encounter, Sophie walked us around and told us about the birds, then we had the absolutely amazing experience of flying 3 absolutely stunning owls; Chester, Louis and Spud. Throughout this, there was not a question that Sophie couldn't answer about any bird at the centre, and she gave us such a great insight and appreciation about the issues affecting birds of prey, and their complex needs, and it was again incredibly clear how much she cared for the birds, and her enthusiasm was completely infectious. She also informed us about the veterinary care for the birds, and about how alot of this is done on site, due to their specialist knowledge.
If we find ourselves nearby we will revisit without a doubt, and we would highly recommend a visit to anyone
Thanks to Mandy, Mark and Sophie for a great day!
翻译:我和丈夫参加了猫头鹰互动体验,由索菲担任我们的饲养员/向导。这真是一次令人难忘的经历!我们首先有机会参观了中心,看到了所有的鸟类,很明显它们都得到了很好的照顾,而且中心里有很多关于每只鸟及其物种的信息。
参观过程中,我们遇到了中心的主人——他们非常友好、热情,而且知识渊博——我们还见到了他们可爱的狗狗们,它们一路陪伴着我们参观(这让我们非常开心)。
在猫头鹰互动体验中,索菲带领我们参观并讲解了各种鸟类,之后我们体验了一把与三只极其美丽的猫头鹰——切斯特、路易斯和斯帕德——一起飞翔的奇妙之旅。整个过程中,无论我们问什么关于中心鸟类的问题,索菲都能解答。她让我们对猛禽面临的问题以及它们复杂的生存需求有了更深刻的了解和认识。她对这些鸟类的关爱之情溢于言表,她的热情也极具感染力。她还向我们介绍了鸟类的兽医护理情况,以及由于兽医们拥有专业知识,很多护理工作都可以在园内完成。
如果我们有机会路过附近,一定会再次光临,我们也强烈推荐大家去看看。
感谢Mandy、Mark和Sophie,让我们度过了美好的一天!
