World of Wings
📍 Luggiebank, Central Scotland
Scotland's largest birds of prey centre near Glasgow, housing Bald Eagles, Golden Eagles, Peregrine Falcons, and multiple owl species. Three flying displays daily with hands-on hawk walks and owl encounters available to book.
We had the most wonderful time at World of Wings over the new year. We were welcomed by Stuart and spent the most incredible morning with many beautiful birds. We love to visit falconry/bird centres and we're so impressed with both the scale of the centre and condition of the birds. It was brilliant to hear about the amazing conservation work the centre does, and a totally unique experience to see the gorgeous Lobelia the griffon vulture in training. All of the birds were amazing but a personal highlight was meeting and getting to pet Zulu the Bataleur eagle who is probably the most magnificent diva on site. Definitely recommend a visit, we'll be back!
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for animal-loving families who want education and entertainment in equal measure. The flying displays are led by knowledgeable handlers who tailor commentary to all ages. Hawk walks and owl encounters add a hands-on dimension.

“Not a huge number of birds but a very impressive collection. The shows with birds and staff are enjoyable and entertaining also very informative. We took in two shows both very different. The weather was terrible but the time flew by (pun intended) and worth the drenching. The cafe serves a decent latte and plenty of food options including some nice cakes. There is car park and an overflow if required. There are toilets on site but i will say it was colder in the toilet than outside. The staff are friendly and happy to tell you the birds stories. We will be back probably for one of the experience days. It's a good day out for the family.”

“Valentines mornings spent World Of Wings Birds Of Prey Centre , first time being at that centre and what a great morning. Lovely roll and coffee for breakfast then a 3hrs hands on experience with some beautiful birds. Abby our falconer really knew her stuff and filled the day with so much great info and fun facts. Can’t wait to bring the dogs and the kids for a great day out❤️”

“We watched the 1pm flying display on Friday and were blown away - it was awesome! We got to watch four birds fly with different handlers while they explained about the bird we were watching, their behaviours, what they eat, how they affect the food chain and so much more. They’re clearly very knowledgable and care about the animals they work with. Can’t wait to go again!”
