BBC Landward - Eagle Champions

by Rick T.

13 May 2020

Today's blog features the very first Eagle Champions in the UK; the Innerleithen Cubs!

In May 2019, BBC Landward visited Traquair House near Innerleithen in the Scottish Borders to film some very special young people doing some fantastic things to become the UK's very first 'Eagle Champions'. Thank you to BBC Landward for the film below.

It was a fantastic day for everyone who was involved! Thank you to Tim and the team at Wild Tree Adventures, falconer Dougie McKenna, Traquair House, BBC Landward and most importantly the Innerleithen Cubs for all of their enthusiasm, hard work and perserverance!

WELL DONE!
