Get up close to fascinating birds of prey! Birds from Raptors Ridge and their dedicated handlers make daily visits to the park between May and late October. Swing by for an immersive educational experience.
Great Horned Owls have a wingspan of up to 1.5 metres (5 feet) with soft-edged feathers that allow them to silently swoop in on their prey.
Lanner falcons are super-fast flyers, reaching speeds up to 144 kilometres per hour (90 MPH)!
Barn owls, whose feathers help trap sound, are so good at hearing they can catch prey in the dark with incredible accuracy.
Raptors Ridge is an educational facility committed to wildlife conservation and to educating the public about raptors—excellent hunters such as owls, hawks and falcons. The birds that visit the Park return to the Raptors Ridge facility every evening, with different birds visiting the next day. When they’re not at the park, the birds enjoy an open environment of free flight, feeling the wind beneath their wings. Raptors Ridge is in the Park from May – October.
