About World Center for Birds of Prey
Kids, have you ever wanted to come face to face with those soaring eagles, adorable owls, and grand falcons and hawks?
Well, at the World Center for Birds of Prey, you can!
This beautiful indoor/outdoor center in Boise is a one of a kind education center, where kids can have incredible up-close encounters with some beautiful birds from all over the world!
It's learning and fun, all in one, and it's the perfect place for kids to SOAR!
There are a host of fun activities for the whole family during a visit to the World Center for Birds of Prey, and whilst each activity is not only fun, it's dedicated to the education of kids, not only about the birds but of conservation too. An invaluable experience!
So, what will you see during your visit? Well, let's explore! How about you see LIVE raptors in the daily presentations they have, where you can see them in all their glory?
How about giving kids a chance to actually HOLD raptor eggs, and features, and engage in puzzles and costumes in the Discovery Room - hands on fun at it's best!
If you want to explore and are feeling adventurous, check out the 1/4 mile trail that winds through the restored habitat areas, where those wild raptors can be spotted within the trees. A great view of Boise too!
There is a Grand Canyon inspired habitat for those beautiful California Condors - and the WORLD's largest captive flock is even housed nearby so they can safely rear young to go back into the wild!
There are indoor exhibits too, where the family can learn about raptor adaptations, breeding, and migration, and learn all about why the birds of prey are threatened, and even aerial skill shows every October!
We told you this was a one of a kind education center, so let's spread out wings, take flight, and spend the next family day out with some pretty incredible birds of prey!
