Experience Birds of Prey up close in Virtual Reality with full 3D Spatial Ambisonic Audio at Eagles Flying - Ireland's Raptor and Research Center, Ballymote, Co Sligo.

Eagles Flying puts on a show twice daily that is open to the public, with highly trained birds of prey. These include eagles, falcons, owls, hawks, kestrels and vultures which fly and land on members of the audience. Highly entertaining, educational, fun and family friendly, this is a unique experience which you can now also enjoy in Virtual Reality 5.7k VR180 video with positional binaural audio.

The Irish Raptor Research Center is a scientifically managed sanctuary established in 1999 as an institution for research on birds of prey and owls. In 2003 parts of the area were opened to the public. Situated on 27 hectares, the sanctuary is home to about 350 birds and animals representing 75 species.
Twice daily scientists train birds for visitors, and give information about their biology with an interactive bird show. We are giving you a short preview in this video, but you really want to visit in person, to see the full show and all the animals.
Before and after the shows you can walk the park lands, view the birds in their aviaries, interact with the animals, and ask questions of the helpful and friendly staff.
They also have a large supervised Petting-Zoo that we will visit later, visitors can get hands-on with guinea-pigs, pigs, rabbits, lambs, goats, donkeys, ferrets, raccoon, a Python, and many more.
Eagles Flying has been awarded the Certificate of Excellence by TripAdvisor, with 92% giving a 5 star rating.
If you have any questions or feedback from the staff at Eagles Flying, please leave a comment on this video, we will pass on your query and hopefully get some answers.

Best viewed in a VR headset like the Oculus Quest using the YouTubeVR app, ensure good broadband speed to play at highest resolution - 5.7k.
Use good headphones in VR or with Desktop, TV and mobile to experience the Ambisonic Sound-field.

The center closes to the public during the winter, but now you can visit virtually off season. We cannot recommend enough that you visit Eagles Flying if in Ireland. If you can't visit and you like the work they do, please consider making a donation to help them continue their valuable work.

We have made this video free to help promote the work the center does, to encourage awareness about wildlife and conservation, and also so you can get to meet some really cool modern raptors. If you like the video please do so, leave a comment, subscribe, and importantly pass on the link to your friends and family:)

Thanks to Lothar and all the staff and animals for such a great day out, for allowing me and you to experience some of their show, and to see some of the fantastic work they do.


I used the Insta360 Evo 5.7k VR180 @30fps, and a Zoom H3-VR Ambisonic Microphone to record the 3D Sound-field and Voice-over.
