Falconry at Wisley

In sharp contrast to the sunny autumn weather of Monopoly day, we woke to a really wet one for our planned trip to see the birds of prey flying at RHS Garden Wisley. We first stopped by the small marquee that had been erected for them as they waited to perform for us. A short walk through the arboretum brought us the reward of seeing some beautiful trees in their autumn colours. But after the flying display, we admitted defeat and after a welcome, warming coffee at the Glasshouse Cafe we came home to dry out.
