Unleash Your Inner Photographer with Our Exclusive Bird of Prey Photography Sessions

Welcome to Mercer Falconry’s Bird of Prey Photography Sessions, where nature and photography enthusiasts come together to capture stunning images of majestic raptors in flight. Our award-winning sessions provide a unique opportunity for photographers of all skill levels to photograph our incredible birds of prey up close, set against the backdrop of the natural beauty of our location.

Why Choose Our Bird of Prey Photography Session?

Unmatched Access to Birds of Prey: Unlike any ordinary wildlife photography experience, our sessions give you unparalleled access to a variety of birds of prey, including falcons, hawks, and owls. Photograph these majestic creatures from just a few feet away, capturing their powerful movements and expressive features.

Perfect Outdoor Setting: Set in the scenic landscapes of the National Forest, our photography sessions provide a picturesque backdrop for your photography. Surrounded by lush greenery and open skies, you’ll have the ideal environment to frame your perfect shot.

Suitable for All Photography Levels: Whether you’re a professional photographer or a beginner, our bird of prey photography sessions are designed to cater to all skill levels. Our team is on hand to offer tips and tricks to help you make the most of your camera and the environment.

Small Group Sizes: To ensure an intimate and focused experience, we limit the number of participants in each session. This allows for ample time with the birds and ensures that you have the best opportunity to get the shots you want without distractions.

What should I wear for a falconry session? Wear comfortable clothing suitable for the outdoors and sturdy shoes. Gloves and equipment will be provided by us.

What should I bring?

• Your camera gear, ideally a DSLR or mirrorless camera with a telephoto lens
• Extra batteries and memory cards
• Comfortable outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear

Are there toilets? Unfortunately there are no toilet facilities on site, as we are not a zoo licensed centre, the sessions take place in a farmers field that does not have facilities.

Can I bring someone to watch? Of course! You can add spectator tickets to your booking for £10 or bring £10 cash on the day!

Are refreshments included? Yes, we stop for a coffee break half way through and a drink is provided, then the Bubble Inn Pub just down the road will give you 10% off food for booking on the session!

What happens if the weather is bad? Safety is our priority. In case of inclement weather, we will reschedule your session for another suitable date.
