Why Karen, owner and founder of Devon Birds of Prey, loves what she does...

"I’ve been passionate about birds of prey and falconry for many years and although this brings with it a wealth of knowledge and experience, the birds never cease to amaze me. Each bird is unique, and just like us, requires respect, love and care that is unique to them.

Birds of prey are incredibly special birds, there is a depth to them that is like no other and I’m so happy that I’ve been able to realise my dream in building up, opening and running the centre so that I can share that with as many people as possible.

Myself and my team look forward to welcoming you to the centre"
