Seminars

The Birds of Prey program/seminar is a fast paced “meet n greet style”, where the audience learns some fun facts about our bird ambassadors, their backstory, and have the opportunity to meet them up close and personal.
There will be a live demo of feeding (frozen whole animals).
At the end of our performance, attendees are welcome to take selfies with the birds.
Photos/video are allowed and encouraged, no flash.
