Birds Of Prey

Daily
Callaway Discovery Center Auditorium*/Discovery Amphitheater**

Callaway Gardens’ Birds of Prey program is presented with the permission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources. Since its debut in 2000, the program has helped educate more than 1 million visitors about man’s impact on raptors and other forms of wildlife. These magnificent creatures – which cannot be released into the wild, due either to injury or having developed an unnatural association with humans, known as “imprinting” – demonstrate their strength, speed and natural instincts in daily free-flighted shows. Several birds appear at each show, swooping overhead and giving guests an up-close look “on the glove,” while our raptor experts explain how man’s actions affect their wellbeing.

Families with younger children may prefer to see the Woodland Critters show (Mondays and Tuesdays at 1:30 p.m.), a new hands-on program designed especially with the pre-K crowd in mind.

SHOW TIMES
