Great facility, Wonderful program by Scott! Interesting and educational facts about eagles, and other birds of prey! Too rainy to use the telescopes to see eagles on the Mississippi, but all in all a great day!

Great idea with the ability to see live captive eagles downstairs. Perhaps a little pricey but great for kids. You can buy gifts without paying for entry. They have special events which are worth paying for.
