This is a unique place with one of the most fervent animal lovers in the world. Rescue is their passion and you will see birds being rescued if they have not been returned to the wild.

I was amazed at how well maintained the facility is and what a personal relationship Ken Lockwood has with each of the birds. To be able to see hawks, owls, eagles, vulture, & other species this close is a unique experience. As a bonus, it was also very educational. Instead of reading a sign board (like at the zoo) Ken...

Eagle Valley Raptor Center is by far the one of the best rescue and rehab center for our birds of prey. The facility is clean and well kept and the birds are absolutely beautiful and very well cared for.

We went on a homeschool field trip in the fall of 2010. The rehabilitator engaged the children of different ages equally with questions, hands on experiance, and informative lectures with funny stories. Highly recommended for school trips and anyone with an interest or love of birds.

Ken Lockwood has a very unique center, it provides almost a "backstage pass" to a learning adventure. Not only do you get to see, touch, learn about Birds of Prey, you may even get to feed them too! You are certainly missing out if you have not visited the Eagle Valley Raptor Center. There are plenty of places to sit... More

The Eagle Valley Raptor Center is a must-see in Cheney. My coworkers and I planned a group outing there and arranged a private tour. We got to see the birds of prey up close and got to take lots of neat photographs. We had a fantastic time!
