Go watch the birdies

This Sunday at Craigmillar Castle, between 11am and 3pm, visitors can meet a royal falconer who will explain all about this favourite sport 
of kings and queens in years gone by.

The public will also get the chance to see these impressive birds of prey up close.

Subject to the weather, the falconer will also attempt some flying with the birds.

The event is part of Historic Scotland’s public performances programme.
