Join Nature’s Educators for unforgettable experience to meet a hawk, owl, falcon, and vulture up close! 🦅🦉
Find out what these birds eat, where they live, the roles they play in the environment, and the fascinating traits that make them masters of the sky. From their razor-sharp talons to their hooked beaks and incredible eyesight, you’ll learn what truly sets these powerful birds apart and why they are so important to our ecosystems.
Audiences will also gain insight into what it takes to properly care for them and discover how Nature’s Educators is licensed and permitted to care for non-releasable raptors. Through engaging storytelling, you’ll hear their personal rescue histories and learn about their anatomy, hunting strategies, habitats, and specialized adaptations that make each species uniquely suited for survival.
This program is geared toward ages 8 and older, but wildlife enthusiasts of all ages will enjoy this unforgettable live animal experience. Bring your cameras, your curiosity, and your questions!
