Hawk Qwest











Our entertainment for the night was presented by Hawk Quest. Emily and her group of volunteers kept the boys and adults alike enraptured with live birds. They began with a Harris' Hawk. My son posed with it and an eye chart. Guess who can see better. Then they brought out a Barred Owl and a Peregrine Falcon. The evening hit its climax with the presentation of a live Bald Eagle. We were able to take pictures with this special lady Eagle. These volunteers really love working with these graceful birds and teaching about conservation.
