The Šibenik Falconry Centre represents a unique place where visitors can find out about the mysterious life of sky hunters – falcons.
The centre receives birds of prey from all over Croatia, most of which are victims of their interaction with human civilization.
The majority are successfully treated and returned to the wild nature.

Birds of prey have always admired the man.
Falcon hunting is as old as the oldest culture of our civilization.
With the appearance of firearms, falcon hunting became less popular, but thanks of many lovers, now there is new renaissance it.
If you come to Dalmatia, this place is a must see! For all ages, it is just the coolest thing you can experience and learn about.
The tour is carried out in a highly informative and friendly manner and the birds are literally in touching distance.
Seeing the important work done at the center has only increased our respect for nature.

Part refuge, part hunting bird hatchery, and entirely fascinating, the Raptor Center is a lovely park where injured birds of prey are brought to be treated and re-released.
But they have quite a few terrifying birds that live on the premises, and conduct educational programs for kids and other interested groups.
Alan was our teacher regarding all aspects of these birds.
This owl has been in the center for 15 years. As a chick, it was found by humans and raised.
Therefore it does not know how to be and owl in the wild
Let me share some photos with you
One of the many birds in rehab

Krka National Park is situated along the Krka River in southern Croatia.
It's known for a series of 7 waterfalls. In the south, Skradinski Buk waterfall is flanked by traditional watermills.
Just a couple of interesting photos along the way

So ends our time in Croatia, we are at sea now and headed back to Malta and GOZO
