Education
Starting in 2025, we will add new educational raptors to our programs—a Barred Owl, Northern Harrier, Great Gray Owl, a Prairie Falcon and a Bald Eagle.
Bring live birds of prey to your classroom, event, at your location or conference!





Raptors are fascinating birds: the silent night-hunting owls, the day-hunting hawks, the fish-eating ospreys, the fast-flying falcons, and the mighty eagles. Birds of Prey Northwest offers educational programs and author visits—including live raptors and/or Janie Veltkamp’s award-winning children’s book Beauty and the Beak and new childrens book Swoop and Soar-for all ages.
​
Janie talks about how the environment affects raptors, and gives audiences insight into their life cycles and adaptations.
All programs include a life size wingspan banner, where kids and adults can compare their human arm span to the wingspans of a bald eagle and other birds.
