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). |

view of a wall plaque showing the layout of the castle. It was a bit of a challenge to get
to the castle -- the closest parking lot was about a mile away, then you had to walk to get
to the castle. |
