Some of the world’s largest birds of prey will take to the skies at the Royal Cornwall Show in June, as the first of this year’s main ring headline acts is announced.

Barry the Bald Eagle, Thelma the Hooded Vulture and Camillia the Steller’s Sea Eagle will be among the huge birds that expert falconer Ben Potter will be flying just over the heads of the crowds at Cornwall’s largest annual event in the summer.

After a successful appearance at the Wadebridge-based event in 2015, Ben returns to the show in June to create a visual spectacle but also providing opportunity to learn more about these fascinating creatures.

Ben will appear on all three days of the Royal Cornwall Show which takes place on June 8, 9 and 10.
