Charlotte Hill and her birds of prey

Grand Ring each day at 1.15 pm

 

The daughter and father team that is “CJ’s Birds of Prey” gives you an insight into the awe-aspiring world of falconry. Charlotte Hill and her team of birds from around the world bring you an educational and exciting display - flying hawks, eagles, owls and falcons.

Each bird is flown in a way so as to show its natural ability and instinct in the wild with an informative and enjoyable commentary.

Charlotte’s experience in flying and training birds of prey comes from her work with centres around the world in countries such as Japan, Denmark and Holland as well as here in the UK at the National Birds of Prey Center.

Charlotte’s father John has been active in the falconry world for over 15 years and works closely with her, training and flying the team at home as well as giving displays all over the country.

Charlotte lives in Cambridgeshire with her husband Jose and her son Luis. Together with her father, they all run hunting, falconry and “experience” courses, helping the general public and aspiring falconers learn about birds of prey and the art of falconry. Doing this, as well as giving stunning displays and educational work is what makes “CJ’s Birds of Prey” one of the UK’s leading display teams.
