Raptors over the Ridge

Free Event

Join Hawk Mountain Educators and learn about our history and the longest running raptor point count survey that has been going for 87 years. We will explore the intricate landscape of the Kittatinny Ridge and how the unique landscape funnels thousands of raptors through during their fall migration each year. Additionally, learn about the 17 different diurnal raptor species that utilize this incredibly important landscape as some travel to South America for the winter. Lastly, discuss adaptations of raptors and why they make such important apex predators in several forest biomes. *no live birds due to avian flu*
