Fire Safety Quiz.

A delighted pack of Cubs were entertained by Barney and Scamp, a pair of Barn Owls from the Turbary Woods owl and bird of prey sanctuary near Preston. 

Their trainer explained all about them and the highlight of the evening was the opportunity to stroke the owls.  Members of the pack also recently take part in the District Fire Safety Competition.

Her owner brought her along to the colony meeting and explained about how the dog and her are trained by the Guide Dog for the Blind Association.
