Pop along to Finn Falconry , see how birds of prey perform under instruction delivering and facilitating static and flying displays.

It takes two hours a day to train a bird of prey or longer.

But you must remember that when you do start that your bird is no longer a pet.

Falconry is about hunting and if your bird fails to land a kill he must be fed when he returns to your glove.

Starting from Oban’s Railway Pier aboard the MV Purple Heather you sail across Oban Bay past Dunollie Castle and Hutcheson’s Monument.

You then arrive at the seal colony in the Firth of Lorne which includes open views of Mull and Lismore.

Along the way there’s an abundance of wildlife to spot.

Like all kinds of sea birds, seals basking in their natural unspoilt surroundings.

Otters and sea eagles, maybe even dolphins areall set in the beautiful and stunning scenery of the Scottish West Coast.
