Atherton Birds of Prey Show

Escape to the cooler climes of the Atherton Tablelands and enjoy an intimate wildlife experience in a natural setting at the Atherton Birds of Prey Show.

You will be amazed at just how close you can get to Australia's awesome aerial predators. See owls, falcons and eagles flying free - the sky's the limit! Learn about their everyday and unusual behaviours, and the local environments in which they live. Mark's interactive presentation allows visitors to be a part of the show, not just part of the audience. He always has a spare glove in his pocket and is more than happy for you to have a go at being hands-on. Meet other fascinating Australian animals after the show, such as Bob the Estuarine Crocodile and Macca the Spotted-tailed Quoll.
