Meet The Resident Raptors

There are currently five raptors that call Meadowside Nature Center home.

Each of the raptors receives excellent human care which includes an active enrichment and training program. Enrichment and training stimulate their minds and expand their activity level to replicate a natural life. Our qualified naturalists focus on raptor cognitive behavior, food, social, and sensory activities.

Meadowside Nature Center (MNC) is home to permanently injured, non-releasable birds of prey, also known as raptors. Located behind the nature center, our accessible Raptor Deck allows you to vise Raptor Deck is open on select Wednesdays and Saturdays. Please register for a free raptor chat at Active Montgomery.
