This was amazing. We had so much fun learning about the birds and watching them fly. The birds were great; Stephanie was great and very knowledgeable. Highly recommended for bird lovers, wildlife fans or anyone looking for something fun to do.

My daughter and I attended this event at Camp Kern and absolutely loved it. Well worth it. The group met at the Boda building in the center of Camp Kern and then drove about two miles away to the Brisben Family Center outside of the camp complex. The Brisben center has a shelter house with restroom facilities and is next to a large open field. It was a bit rainy but that didn't seem to affect much. After 30-40 minutes of indoor show-and-tell we moved outside to hold an owl and then have the falcons fly to/from us. Overall the activity was about 2 - 2.5 hours. The presenter, Stephanie, was outstanding. Very pleasant, knowledgeable, and humorous.

It was a really nice time and we enjoyed it.…

We participated in the Feather and Fur Photography event on October 11, 2020. It was a well-organized event with the birds of Ohio School of Falconry and the Ironwood Wolves. They even had a professional model at the site to provide for an exceptional photography opportunity, even for seasoned photographers. The animals were all well-cared for and the setting was wonderful. They did a super job of setting things up in such a way as to offer many spectacular photo opportunities. The staff were all knowledgeable and the communication prior to and after the event was top notch. We highly recommend this event and the organizations!…

I thoroughly enjoyed my class (Falconry 201). The Falconer leading the class was quite knowledgeable and personable. I enjoyed getting to have the European owl up close. Her eyes were amazing! The time with the Arizona falcons in the woods was great fun. Quite the experience to have them swoop in from the trees (picture of them in a tree below) to get a snack off my glove. Loved it! Wish I could post the video. I highly recommend. …
