Wings of Wonder, Birds of Prey: Tygart Lake

Live birds of prey at Tygart Lake State Park are presented by the Three Rivers Avian Center (TRAC) on Saturday, September 17, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. The educational birds are a great opportunity to learn what birds say “who cooks for me, who cooks for you all?” as well as meeting other raptors.

The evening program is all about raptors native to West Virginia: hawks, eagles, falcons, and owls. You’ll learn about the habitat, diet and behavior of each bird presented, the most common causes of injury to each species and the laws protecting these special birds. There is no fee to attend. Open to the public, the program lasts about an hour and is staged at the Nature Center at Tygart Lake State Park. Questions are welcomed. This is a family friendly and groups welcomed event. Join Naturalist Jacob Jackson and park staff at Tygart Lake for this evening with the raptors.
