A Northern Crested Caracara. Found in Latin America., Stan is a bit of an odd bod. He is technically a Falcon he behaves like a Vulture and is often known as the Mexican Eagle. He is 7 years old. He enjoys puzzles and small objects. Keep an eye on your belongings as he likes to horde things.
He throws his head back and makes a rattling noise.
Stanley can be seen daily. It is particularly fun when he gets his mid afternoon meal at the 1.30pm display.
The mainstay of our flying demonstrations are our Harris Hawks. A different Harris Hawk flies in each demo during the day. They are all open to sponsor and they all have interesting credentials.
Our Harris hawks are Clive, Ubbe and Ivar.
Our 9 year old Barn owl who is also our resident Grumpy Old Man along with Keith.
Heimdall is our 1 year old Little Owl.
He's so tiny!
Our 6 year old Eurasion Eagle Owl, Odin, is one of the most popular birds at SHF. He is very graceful in the air even tho he looks like the size of a back door!
Loki is a 3 year old American Kestrel.
He's small but deadly. American Kestrels are used in what's know as Micro-Hawking
