Two separate workshops are being held to teach people about birds of prey, next week.

The first, on May 29, will focus on the many different species of owl which inhabit Epping Forest.

Guests at the free event will learn about the mysterious birds and can join in an owl themed craft activity, in the session which will run from 1pm until 4pm at The View, Chingford.

The second, Hunting with Hawks, will discuss falconry and will give the group a chance to discover more about the raptors that live in Epping Forest, today.

On May 31 the workshop will run from 1pm until 4pm and will be held at The Queen Elizabeth Hunting Lodge.
