Here at TWO Bird Experiences we often find that the best way to learn something new, whether that be a fact or a skill, is to get stuck right in!
On our interactive workshops we make sure we have fun and create memories while introducing our groups to new concepts and topics, which we really feel is one of the best ways to teach and inspire others.
When it comes to discussions surrounding ecosystems, conservation or even history, having the birds on hand is a fantastic way to help create an impact, build empathy and to understand the wider impacts and implications we have on our ever changing world.
And on our art or photography sessions the beauty and uniqueness of each bird can be captured; the falconers will work with you to challenge individual skill levels or can pose the birds to bring a sense of calm and focus to the room.
And nothing is a better team building activity than putting yourself into the mindset of a raptor. Do you think you would be able to build the sturdiest nest? Who would master the art of egg incubation? And which team would conquer the mechanics of flight to take to the skies first?!
With each day that comes we are privileged to meet new people and hear your stories and facts as well, which is why we love the workshops so much! One of the greatest things about knowledge is to get to share it with others.
