Join us for an exciting opportunity to photograph several of our stunning education ambassadors including: Bald Eagle, Peregrine Falcon, American Kestrel, Merlin, Rough Legged hawk, Barn Owl and Barred Owl. As the fall season sets in, this is the perfect time to capture the beauty of these majestic raptors in a controlled and safe environment.
The birds will be wearing their required safety equipment, including anklets and jesses. Photographers are required to bring a digital camera (no cellphones permitted) and will need to maintain a minimum distance of 25 feet from the birds at all times. Please note, participants will not be handling the birds. Due to limited space only registered participants please, no exceptions. Must be 16 years of age and older. This is one of our largest fundraising events of the year, and all proceeds will directly support the care of the birds at our center.
This event is weather dependent with suitable conditions for the birds (no rain or high winds) Raindate: Sunday October 27th same time and location.
We offer a variety of outreach programs with our education raptors for schools, libraries, senior groups, conversation clubs and more. For information about our programs available and fees, click on Programs For questions contact us at falco5@ticon.net
