Hawks, owls and falcons deftly swoop through the air, eyes and ears ever alert for unsuspecting prey. Their unique design and deadly weapons make them some of the most beautiful yet formidable hunters. Learn how to identify these birds while gaining a greater understanding about their adaptations and habits. Enjoy the program and then see the December showcase exhibit presented by the Garden City Bird Sanctuary.
