Schlitz Audubon Center: Raptor Saturday
Saturday, July 03, 2021 01:00pm 02:00pm

Free with membership or admission: https://www.schlitzaudubon.org/event/raptor-saturday-6/

The ability to fly has long inspired those of us on the ground. Join our resident birds to learn not only about the mechanics of flight, but how flight varies between groups of birds such as owls, falcons, hawks, and vultures. We will examine different wing shapes, flying patterns, and the physics behind flight to learn about how raptors use their ability to fly to excel in their wild habitats.

Scheduled to appear: Valkyrie (Bald Eagle), Nicco (Broad-winged Hawk), Tallulah (Turkey Vulture).
