Meet some of the birds which we have rehabilitated and unable to go back to the wild. Our experienced guides will help you hold a kāhu hawk and teach you about all New Zealand's raptors, the kāhu/ hawk, kārearea/ falcon, ruru/ morepork, little owl and barn owl. Sessions are available in Timaru by prearrangement.
