A highlight of our time at Kilkea Castle, we experienced the majesty of owls, hawks, and a falcon on the gorgeous grounds with the magnificent castle as our backdrop.
Bernard, our committed and knowledgeable falconer, spoke passionately in detail as he not only showed us the birds, allowing us to hold all of them, but also educated us on their history, lifestyle, and eating habits.

These photos are incredible!!
Thanks! I couldn’t tell when I was taking them if they’d come out okay, given the lighting and all. Ultimately, I was quite pleased with a lot of them. 🙂
Our favorite day of the trip ❤️
I agree! Such a wonderful experience!
