Seeing live raptors up close and personal is an exciting experience people of all ages never forget!
4-5 live raptors are brought to our programs along with a learning touch table of raptor related objects. These programs are designed to allow everyone to experience an up-close learning adventure that is tailored to their age, understanding, and current learning objectives. Discussion topics may include characteristics of raptors, adaptations of diurnal and nocturnal raptors, fables and stories about raptors, our local birds of prey, predator and prey relationships in a food chain, conservation trends relating to raptors, falconry, and much more.
Our programs, which are adapted to all ages, are available to any group, organization or school simply by e-mailing or calling the listed numbers below. Try to make your requests as far in advance as possible. A donation is requested to help offset the expenses of caring for these birds.
