Snow Photography Days

On the rare occasion it snows, we usually receive requests to come and photograph our birds in the snow.  Should weather conditions mean it would be unsafe to open to the general public, or it snows during our closed period, we may be able to allow small escorted groups in to capture the spectacle (at your own risk). This is perfect if you are a keen photographer who would love to get some special shots of our cold climate birds in a natural setting, which will include our Snowy Owl and one of our Great Grey Owls.

Your experience:

Because of the nature of the event i.e. snowy and possibly slippery conditions underfoot, guests must be aware that attendance will be at their own risk.
