Burg Falkenstein, near Meisdorf in the Harz, features a great bird show.
The castle was first built between 1120 and 1150 and was privately owned until the 19th century.
One of the participants in the bird show is this Sakerfalke (falcon), which flew up right next to us.
Another particpant in the bird show was this very imposing-looking Uhu (owl).
