Here is the website address if you're interested: http://turbarywoods.co.uk/<br />I couldn't quite tell if all their birds are rescues and if they release them into the wild after they are rehabilitated (like our local wildlife center in VA). They do indeed talk about training the birds and have "flight days" when they show them off to the public. Anyway, thanks for your input.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10906087554997612797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222503441854374850.post-30835867368971250722012-09-26T14:49:48.124-05:002012-09-26T14:49:48.124-05:00Just a thought about training these nocturnal anim...Just a thought about training these nocturnal animals in captivity so they can show off in daylight...I'm not so happy about it.Concetta Florehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08770819606453338468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222503441854374850.post-40445215467060614622012-09-26T08:29:59.163-05:002012-09-26T08:29:59.163-05:00I thought of an aircraft too Maree.

It's fantastic to see how he puts on the brakes, wing flaps lowered like those on an aircraft, ready for the landing - those feather close-ups are out of this world!
