Day Eight, 2023 Road Trip/Cruise — Alaska Raptor Center   1 comment

Located on 17 acres in Sitka, Alaska, the Alaska Raptor Center provides medical treatment to over 200 injured birds annually.  Although we specialize in raptors, we will aid any needy wild bird.  We strive to heal, rehabilitate and release all of our avian patients; however, some are injured too severely to fully recover and survive in the wild.  These non-releasable birds may join our Raptors-in-Residence team, helping us teach the public and schoolchildren about the wonders of raptor natural history and the habitats in which they live!

It was not easy to take photos of the raptors in the flight rehab area since the viewing area had screening designed to not allow the bird to see visitors.
