Get up close and personal with birds of prey, and find out how these magnificent animals keep the Spier farm healthy and balanced.

Eagle Encounters receives and rehabilitates birds of prey that have been injured, poisoned, abused or hand-reared. When they are fit, healthy and able to hunt and breed again they are released into the wild. Only hand-reared birds are kept for education purposes.
