Wednesday saw Henfolds Birds of Prey visit pre-school. Barry the handler brought 4 birds ( 2 owls, a hawk and a falcon) for the children to see to support our topic of birds.

The children were amazing, sitting still and quiet and concentrating well, some more confident children asking lots of questions!

We learnt the birds names, their ages, what they liked to eat, which ones come out at night, and which one is the fastest animal in the world!!!

For obvious reasons the children were not allowed to handle the birds, but they were able to get quiet close to see details.

As you can see from the pictures though, our very “owly” deputy was allowed to handle the owls, make her a very happy bunny!!!
