“We drove from Utah to see this place. While in Boise we did other things. But this was our main purpose. It was exciting to do the special show and then walk around the facility. Let it be known. They don't have a ton of birds on display. But what they do have are great ambassadors. It isn't a zoo per say. But a conservation center first. Where you can learn more about birds of prey. For the shows specifically - the staff do a great job of walking around the crowd and even launching the birds from every angle. I'd say there's not a bad seat in the house. Just about every spot will have a bird flying over your head at some point or another. Additionally they will walk right in front of you so you can get a 3ft view of the bird. You can tell they put a lot of thought into giving the crowd a good show.“

“Very nice place. Didn't like the live demo though. Where they showed an owl that had a wire on its leg. The owl fell of the tree stump a few times when they were holding the line so it was upside down hanging on a string attached to its leg.“

“My husband and I visited here on Saturday October 12th. It’s not very big but you are able to see different types of birds and learn about them, the Peregrine Fund and how it helps with the research of endangered raptors around the world. There is a fee for the center and there is lots of parking on site.“

“Had a great time exploring and learning about the amazing birds of prey. I love that they even had an interactive kids play room and all the exhibits were very informational. If you have a chance, talk to the employees.. They had some great extra information.“
