Awesome!! Very Cool!!! I had interactions with golden and bald eagle, hawks, variety of owls and a turkey vulture. Recommend calling and setting up a guided tour. They do good work rehabing taking care of the birds. Definitely worth a visit!!
I love Eagle Valley Rapture Center. This is an amazing place with some of the most beautiful majestic birds in the sky. Wasu is a 20 year old American Bald Eagle. He can not be released as he has a damaged wing. This is his forever home.
Very educational rehab facility for raptor birds of North America. The cost is only a recommended donation of $5 per person to help with the costs of taking care of the birds... More than reasonable!
Very well kept facility, and accommodating for anyone. We made a reservation for 9am on a Saturday morning and although part of the group ran about 15 minutes late, they were very welcoming, friendly, and just happy to share their resident birds with us . We were the only group at the facility for the whole 2 hour visit, and we learned a lot and were even able to hand feed several of the beautiful birds. Each had very distinct and entertaining personalities. Our guide was great and Wazoo the bald eagle was the highlight of it visit.
They have a nice covered shelter and picnic area they can make available as well. It is all outdoors otherwise, so weather could be an issue.
We all had a great time and really enjoyed our visit! Would recommend for any bird lovers.
A friend and I helped rescued a Mississippi Kite in my backyard. We called this place soon as possible when we found out it is a raptor rescue and care place. It is a non-profit place and so any kind of donations help. We met up with Ken and he helped us get the Kite into one of his many cages. I followed up on the Kite and Ken said the vet didn't see any metal fragments in the Kite and they gave it antibiotics and the Kite is on the road to recovery. This place is also great for school tours.
This place was not very big,BUT I was very impressed at what this gentleman had to share. He has some of th finest raptors I've ever seen, close up( and some of the Cub Scout troop I was with) found personal. He was very knowledgeable about each of the birds. You could tell they are well taken care of. Most of these birds have been rescued, and some are going to be able to be released back to the wild, others cannot because of their injuries. But the experience for the kids was amazing, they got to hand feed the birds. We all even got to go in the cage with the Bald Eagle. This man does this ALL by donations. So if you go and take a group, be generous. His grounds are very clean very well kept. There is an area to picnic,he has a grill, picnic shelter, clean rest rooms. This was a great experience, I definitely will tell people to go. I want to go again.
