We hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful summer weather! ☀️

During our lunch break today we left Pablo, our rather entertaining Aplomado falcon, out to explore the grounds for 45 minutes while our guests enjoyed their lunch. She popped in every 10 minutes to say hello, and to grab some lunch herself, before heading off again.

Although the front of Herstmonceux Castle is still not looking quite as beautiful as normal, with work still being carried out. I think we can all agree however that the view from the back is still stunning! Especially with one of our Kites flying over head!

I did spend 45 minutes trying to get a nice shot of both our kites flying over the castle together, but they refused to both fly over at the same time in the same shot so I had to settle for just the one 😂, they still had fun!

It looks like we have some great weather coming our way over the next few weeks!! The team love sunny blue sky’s as they can really enjoy getting out and spreading their wings!!

☔️ Wet days like today really make us look forward to the warmer weather when we can really get out and enjoy some time with the birds.

Below is a video of Pablo when she was let out to explore for a while on a nice sunny day, she soon decided however to come and find me and my partner Rebecca after 20 minutes to see if it was food time 😂

We have a display tomorrow 2:00-3:00 at Herstmonceux Castle Estate come along and say hello 👋🏼
