Out and About: David Goes Birds of Prey Handling
David, one of our Corporate Administrators, found himself in the countryside of Kent recently, where he got acquainted with some majestic birds of prey. Here’s his account of a day at Eagle Heights. “My arrival at Eagle Heights was warm and receptive.

Ali takes up the story on arrival: “The gate is padlocked with a four number combination. I try the year, I try the area dialling code, I try my birthday. Nothing happens. We are locked out.
