BIRDS OF PREY OF THE WATERMAN CENTER

Hi! My name is Nokomis and I am a Great Horned Owl. I have been living at the Center since January, 2002. I came to the Center because I had an accident and lost my right eye. This makes it hard for me to hunt in the wild so I live here instead. I am about 7 or 8 years old and I like to sleep during the day. But if you come up to see me, I'll clack and hoot for you if you're nice! Just come around the back side of the barn and you'll see my home. | |

Hi! My name is Redmond and I am a Red-tailed Hawk. I have lived here at the Center for about 11 years! I live here because I can't see very well out of my left eye. This made it very hard for me to fly and catch my food. Along with my other roomate, I too teach kids about raptors and how important they are to our community. I live right across from the Interpetive Center so come up and say hi! | |

Hi! My name is Midnight and I am a Harris Hawk. I came to live here at the Center about 2 years ago because I retired from the sport of falconry. I use to go after rabbits, squirrels, other birds for my previous owner who was a falconer but I found it tiring. I'm 14 years old and can't be released out in the wild because I've always had a human feed me and take care of me. I wouldn't know what to do in the wild. I also don't have any relatives near by since they live in the Southwestern states of the U.S. I'm right next door to Redmond so come by and say hi! | |
