This interactive experience is aimed not only at bird enthusiasts, but also at anyone who relishes the opportunity to see birds rarely seen outside of their wild habitats. The performance will include film footage and stories from the Bucks’ experiences with birds.
Lloyd and Rose have devoted over 25 years to rearing and nurturing a wide variety of breeds at their farmstead near Bristol. They train their birds specially for filming on location and are the foremost experts at tracking birds and in-flight filming.

Their birds have appeared in numerous productions for ITV, the National Geographic Channel, RTE in Ireland and CBS in America.
They have worked with virtually every wildlife and natural history television star including Sir David Attenborough, Steve Backshall, Michaela Strachan, Chris Packham, and Kate Humble.
