COMPLIMENTARY FALCONER MEET & GREETWednesday - Sunday at 11am
Terranea introduced its falconry program in May 2009. Since then, these
majestic birds have become a popular and unique attraction at the resort.
While participating in this special program, guests can learn about the
general characteristics of the birds of prey and view a flight demonstration
alongside our expert falconers.
In addition to the spectacular sport of falconry, the raptors also provide
an important service on Terranea’s coastline property. The falcons were
introduced to Terranea in an eco-friendly, non-lethal attempt to rid the
resort of a large, indigenous seagull population. In a truly unique display
of both power and control, the team of Jeer and Peregrine Falcons, Harris
Hawks, and Eurasian Eagle Owls has established ownership throughout the
property without need for attack. With the success of the Aerial Solutions
team and their expertly trained raptors, the birds ensure a clean and healthy
environment and continue to keep the resort and restaurants sea-gull free.
