@carmot Monopod. You need to take a monopod.
@newbie1 and
@johnf3f The OP did say "to photograph birds of prey
workshop"
This would imply some kind of a event where visitors would attend a workshop to watch and learn about birds of prey. You know, like a blacksmith workshop, first aid workshop, photography workshop, sewing workshop, a lot of different workshops where the experienced would talk about the subject to visitors.
A birds of prey workshop could look like this photo I found off Google, can you image trying to place your tripod in the middle of the crowd of people like that? A monopod would be mobile enough to move around without getting in their way, and supportive enough to help offer extra means to steady a camera.
