Raptors of Virginia

It’s always a thrill to watch a Red-tailed Hawk soar beneath a bright blue sky or hear a Barred Owl call on a cold, clear night. Have you ever wondered about where they live, what they eat, or how they raise their young? Liz Dennison of Secret Garden Birds and Bees will invite you into the personal lives of the magnificent birds of prey that live right in our own backyards. You’ll meet Wildlife Ambassador hawks and owls up close and learn to identify our native species, how their presence provides a valuable contribution to the health of our environment, and what we can all do to help them thrive in our increasingly human world. And you might even get to take a selfie with an owl. This family-friendly program is cosponsored by Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy and Vanish Brewery. No registration necessary.
