Hawk Walks & Owl Encounters are a vital part of our fund-raising activities and help sustain our Rescue & Rehabilition work
The Owlery's 'hacking pen' (indoor free-flying area) is also finally complete and in use and our programme of creating yet more aviaries and improving the building which houses them continues apace. All donations to help offset construction, maintenance and welfare costs, no matter whether the amount you can give is large or small, will always be greatly appreciated by the members of our ever-growing 'foster family'.
Don't forget that we are an independent charity (no

We're now at Newton St Loe
, from around the the world (quite literally from Australia to the USA and all points in between) who made a donation to our 'moving' appeal. We'd also like to say how much we appreciate the donations we continue to receive which will help offset the cost of developing 'The Owlery' and will support our ongoing charitable rescue and welfare work.
West of England Falconry (WOEF) was established in 2010 inspired by head falconer and director Jay Marshall’s lifelong interest in ornithology. WOEF is a registered charity dedicated to the well-being of owls and birds of prey and to promoting an understanding of the historic art of falconry
“I’ve been fascinated by birds, especially birds of prey all my life” says Jay, “...it was a falconry experience similar to the ones we now offer the public which prompted me to learn more and develop a private collection and aviaries of my own. It was only after several years of working with experienced falconers that I was able to gather a small group of trustees together to form West of England Falconry which has subsequently been granted charitable status”.
