SUMMARY:Owls by Candlelight
DESCRIPTION:A magical wildlife experience in the Gardens\n\n\n  \nMeet the owls\nAfter dark\, in winter\, the pure romance of the Gardens becomes even more evident.\nWhen? \nPlease gather in the Courtyard Cafe from 16:30 for a 17:00 start. The session will then run for just over an hour\, before you return to the Courtyard to warm up. The Gardens will then be closed at around 19:00. \nOn a clear night the shapes of the trees are starkly silhouetted against the vast sky\, providing a tall protective ring enclosing the Gardens. The traffic hum and the sparkling lights of the city recede in favour of the more intermittant sounds of nocturnal wildlife scuttering across paths and through trees for refuge or food. \nW e invite you to share a bit of this new year winter magic in the Gardens. \n“This experience is one that will stay with me forever. Absolutely loved it” \nThe Music Room\, Orangery and Courtyard will be subtly lit and candlelight will line the Archery Lawn . \nJoe of Tora’s Falconry will introduce his beautiful owls and help each participant to hold and fly the birds across and through our candlelit spaces. \nNight time is their territory and you will experience a deal of wonder and magic being close up to these magnificent animals. \nAfter your Owl encounter\, grab a lantern and wander off around the Gardens\, maybe hand in hand with your companion\, to immerse yourselves in the friendly sounds and enveloping shadows of the Gardens paths and promenades. \nBack in the Courtyard Cafe\, there is a warmed tent\, and the available mulled cider\, hot toasties and a whole range of other goodies… \n– —————————————————————————————————— \nN B This is an Adult event. \nChildren over 16 are permitted\, with an accompanying\, paying\, adult. \nNB Falconer is in charge of the care and welfare of the birds and will make decisions about who\, how and when particpants can fly the birds after the initial training. \nTickets \nParticipant tickets are limited to 12 – so the birds do not get exhausted. \nEach participant can buy extra ‘add-on’ observer/companion tickets for friends\, who can share the magic and romance of the evening \, but not be directly instructed in flying the birds. \nParticipant tickets £25 \nAdditional ticket for companion £12 \n(please note- Companion tickets may only be purchased alongside a Participant ticket. ) \nNB – as ever\, we are dealing with living creatures\, not performers. We are led completely by Joe the Falconer in terms of the birds’ welfare and will not take chances with their health. \nIn the event of bad weather\, we will postpone the event and you will get the chance to transfer your ticket.
