Talons! Birds of Prey
5th and 6th Grade Language Arts students are currently reading My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead George. The book tells the tale of a teenage boy living in the Catskill Mountains who raises a falcon hatching to help him hunt. On Monday, students experienced falconry first-hand through the educational program Talons! A Bird of Prey Experience. Lorrie from Talons! shared a variety of raptors with the students and talked at length about their behavior, both in the wild and as companions to humans. During lunch, all students were invited to the gym to watch the birds fly.
