Eagles Flying

Eagles Flying is a scientifically run Wildlife Sanctuary specializing on Birds of Prey and Owls. We focus on "hands on" interaction between our well trained animals and our visitors. During our educational flying demonstrations members of the audience can have a bird of prey land on their hand or have Eagles, Falcons, Hawks or Vultures stoop inches over their heads while Scientists inform in a friendly and fun way. Our visitors can also visit our unique "Touch-Zoo" where they can play and pet "Tui & Alan" our Foxes, get pick pocketed by "Grizzly" our tame Raccoon, have "Monty" our 4 meter Python around their shoulders or get up close and personal with any of the other unusual animals. Get closer than you have ever been to the masters of the sky. Eagles Flying really is an unforgettable experience and a must see for people of all ages and interests.

Thanks a mil for a great day out. Brilliant for kids and adults alike. Well kept sanctuary with lovely, knowledgeable staff. The show with birds of prey is great and very interesting. Some kids/adults get to participate. But don't worry if your child doesn't get picked, you can do lovely pictures at the end and all the kids who want to, can hold an owl (the highlight of the day for my son who is a big Harry Potter fan :-) The petting farm was a bonus. Among other animals, you could see a fox, a raccoon up-close. The staff answered all your questions. We will be back. Keep up the wonderful work that you are doing there. It is inspirational.

Lissadell House

A surprisingly wonderful tour visit, steeped in history, part home, part estate, part museum. I highly recommend this stop when visiting the Drumcliff area of Ireland. Historical characters and references are so interesting in a spectacular setting on Galway Bay. Step back in time with this stop.

Recently along with my wife we had the pleasure of bringing three of our grandchildren to visit lisaddell house in county sligo. From the beginning to the end of our visit it was one revelation after another and so exciting for us to be in a position to share our history as a country and the joys of nature with our little ones. The ground and gardens are a joy to behold and offer great views of Ben Bulben and all round Sligo bay. Both the alpine and vegetable gardens gave rise to plenty of questions and exciting discoveries from both young and old alike. The house tour was led by a young local lad who displayed an excellent knowledge of the history of the house the Gore Booth family particularly Countess Markievicz an her sister Eva two women who have made a huge mark on both the history of our society and our country. The contrast between how people lived upstairs and downstairs in the past was made very clear not alone by our guide but also the stark reality of seeing first hand the rooms and the artifacts therein, The old toys were of particular interest to our girls. The rooms upstairs have been excellently restored and Lissadell is well worth a visit.
