We visited the booth at Art in the Park. Birds are fascinating so we stopped to hear about them.

What is a raptor? A raptor is a Hawk..... So I am learning so much from Yelp's virtual events and this event, The Rocky Mountain Raptor Program is no stranger to education and information to people like me.... The RMRP is an organization who rescues, rehabilitates and then, returns the Raptor back to the wild. However in some cases, the bird is injured that even with rehabilitation would not survive in the wild. In these cases they are housed and cared for within and through this Raptor Program. The raptors who are in the program are not given names. Why? Not sure but I'm guessing that might lend to attachment so as a rule, No names??? The raptor's beak and it's feet!!! what are they called? Bird Feet!!!! They need the feet and beak as a tool for their survival. Their wing span can reach five feet.... (that spans my height!!! LOL) Those birds are so pretty or handsome as it may be. I'm glad and I tip my hat to the RMRP for giving them a second lease on life. oh, by the way, if you see other birds in harm's way, you can reach out to the RMRP with a picture of what needs help and they will find the right group to assist. Thank you!!! RMRP!!!!

The Raptor Rescue in Ft Collins is an amazing jewel both for raptors and the community! The educational programs they provide, the rehabilitation of injured raptors, and the forever home of raptors that can’t survive on their own is a a special place run by staff & volunteers who give selflessly to help keep these magnificent creatures from extinction! Such a gift!

Volunteered here over the holidays and got to learn quite a bit about raptors! They rehabilitate and release (if possible) injured raptors, and they teach using their educational birds that cannot be released back into the wild. They are having a gala dinner in February that we will be going to :)
