McCormick Observatory, McCormick Road, Charlottesville, VA, USA
Have you ever looked up at a majestic hawk or falcon or owl or other bird wheeling around in the sky and thought, “Man, I wish I could stand very close to one and maybe even hold it?”
Then BOY do we have the trip for YOU. Join me and Evelyn and our bestie/local falconer Drake Haydock for an afternoon of learning about falconry and watching his beautiful red-tailed hawks in action! The plan is to chat with Drake about birds and falconry, see some flight/hunting demos, and *maybe* even get to hold one of the birds!! PLUS I’ll have my film camera so you may even get an epic photo and/or ODC Instagram feature out of all of this…
I am literally so stoked. Evelyn is literally so stoked. We’re sure Drake is so stoked.
See you tomorrow.
The Plan:
2:00pm Meet at the parking lot at Kellogg Dorm (up O Hill!)
2:05pm Walk over to where we’re meeting Drake on O Hill
2:15pm Drake. Birds. Flying. Fun.
3/3:15pm?? Return to wherever you wish with legendary and epic falconry experience that you’ll cherish for years to come
Bring:
Yourself!
A long-sleeved shirt
Water/snacks if you so wish
Excitement and questions and respect for these wonderful and incredible creatures
