Raptor Refuge, Kettering

What an awesome day. This is the best a wildlife refuge could be. Close up with Masked owls, Tawny Owls, Wedge tails, and everything inbetween. Staff answered all our annoying questions (and we had a lot), taught us a lot, and made the experience a engaging and fun experience. Take your kids, your parents, a random off the street! If you're a teacher take the whole school. I'd post photos, but we were so taken we forgot about our phones!

I was absolutely blown away by the obvious love, care and time that has gone into, and continues to go into this wonderful place, and the birds within it. The grounds of the sanctuary are immaculate, as are the enclosures. Our guide, Juliet, was knowledgeable and more than happy to answer the questions we continued to pepper her with throughout the tour. Visit, support, do whatever you can, to ensure their important work can continue. Bravo, Raptor Refuge team - the birds are lucky to have you.
