Live Raptors (And a Groundhog!) Kids Free!

Meet four rehabilitated raptors – and one groundhog – up close and personal! The birds of prey will include one or more species of owl, hawk, vulture and/or falcon. Learn how each bird had been injured & rehabilitated by the Rescue Center – to become a wildlife ambassador that helps us humans learn how raptors live in the wild and help us coexist with them. You’ll also meet education animal Allen McButterpants, a groundhog who is very popular with children!
Rain Date July 29.
Some seating provided. Please dress appropriately for events and workshops held outdoors: comfortable shoes and socks, wide brimmed hats, sunscreen, insect repellant and water are recommended. To be a source of healthy insects for our birds and other insect-feeding wildlife, we do not spray the gardens to manage ticks. Please take appropriate caution.
