Donald M. Kerr Birds of Prey Center
Get a close-up look at some of nature’s most spectacular predators – owls, hawks, eagles, falcons and even vultures.
Every day at 11:00 am during our Bird of Prey Encounter, our wildlife staff introduces you to one of the birds in our care and sheds light on their way of life in the High Desert. Please check the Daily Schedule for the latest times. This is not typically a flight program, but rather, an opportunity to see the birds up close!
All of the animals cared for at the Museum cannot be released to the wild. Most of them were rescued after being injured and many cannot fly. Other animals rely on us just to survive because they never learned how to hunt or avoid predators. When people take young animals from their parents, these animals become “imprinted” on humans and can no longer survive in the wild. Please help us feed and care for them through our Adopt an Animal program. It makes a great gift!
