Did you know?
The dives of Peregrine Falcons have been clocked up to 242 mph on camera.  Rumors of falcons reaching over 300 mph are unproven.  The current record was set by "Frightful" in Washington stat.  He is a falconry trained Peales peregrine falcon. alt

Donations and Volunteers Support Us

We are not supported by any government organization or large foundation. We are a small local group who operates on very little. As a result, we are happy with most donations. While money is nice, other donations are welcome as well.

MONETARY DONATIONS can be cash, checks, and paypal.

VOLUNTEER HELP is one of our main needs. We need people to help transport animals, help clean and maintain equipment, help with business errands and more. If you want to help out, call or email us.

FOOD DONATIONS to feed the birds directly are also available. We get our food from Mike Dupuy Hawk food.
