HAWKWATCHING – Visit the Braddock Bay hawkwatch and learn about the many different kinds of raptors (hawks, eagles, falcons and more!) that migrate through the area.  Get a free hawk ID guide and hawkwatch scorecard to keep track of your sightings.  Bring your own binoculars or borrow from BBRR.  Volunteer interpreters will be present at the platform from 10am – 2 pm.

MEET LIVE RAPTORS – Live birds of prey will be on exhibit from 10 am -2 pm from both BBRR and Black Creek Wildlife Station.  It’s a great chance to meet some of these amazing predators up close and personal.
