- Learn about an owl’s unique adaptations, from their uncanny ability to turn their head almost 360 degrees, to their exceptional eyesight and silent flight!
- Take a closer look at Eastern Screech Owl feathers, which allow them to perfectly camouflage against tree bark.
- Find out how you can help protect owls like Luna and Cedar in your own backyard.
- Yes, you can take photos or videos and of course, ask our experts questions!
*An aviculturist is a National Aviary expert who provides daily care for the owl
We paid for the owl experience for our two kids (ages 15 and 21). The kids came out of the room excited and busily talking about everything they learned. Both agreed the employee was incredibly knowledge and had a well-organized and thoughtful presentation. Also, we loved the immersive exhibits and very much enjoyed sharing the birds’ habitat with them.
