Sure thing. I believe it was 2 hours and a pretty small group (maybe 3 other couples). Falconer and his assistant brought two raptors, a red tail hawk and peregrine falcon. He goes over some history of the species and falconry. You'll then take turns getting the hawk used to you. He'll fly to limbs 20 yards away and back while you wear the glove. Eventually you'll get to where the hawk is flying a couple hundred yards and back to you. The falconer will then demonstrate how the peregrine flys and hunts. They circle around in the air to hunt so you don't handle it but watching it fly is very impressive.
