Visitors to Edinburgh who love owls, raptors, and other large birds should visit The Scottish Owl Centre at Polkemmet Country Park in West Lothian. The owl sanctuary is home to the most extensive owl collection on earth and features more than 100 owls from all over the world, including the Rainforest, The Boreal Forest, North Pole, and native British owls. Visitors to the center can watch daily all-weather flying displays, participate in hands-on education features, and even hold an owl for a photo opportunity. Children love to play on the adventure playground, while families have lunch in the picnic area, and then peruse the Gift Shop.
