Educational programs are offered by Rebecca Lessard, Wings of Wonder

Educational Programs benefit people and raptors alike

Wings of Wonder educational presentations last about an hour and can be tailored to fit the needs of any audience of any age. Programs may include a brief powerpoint presentation introducing the special features of raptors, native Michigan raptors, and the primary reasons for population declines.

Live raptors accompany each and every program so audience members have the opportunity for a close up look at these magnificent birds. A hands-on display of raptor artifacts including wings, talons, feathers, pellets, and photos are also available at each presentation.

We allow plenty of time, both during and after our presentations, for question-and-answer sessions. Our programs outline the wonders of raptors, their habitat needs, environmental issues, endangered and threatened status, and wildlife ethics and wildlife stories. Audiences are left with pro-active strategies for helping raptors and ways to live in harmony with the wild animals that share this planet with us.

Program costs are based on a number of variables including distance from Empire Michigan and length of the program requested. Please contact Wings of Wonder to discuss your interests and needs.

You can sponsor a program at a school, club, camp, or place of your choosing. Contact us for details by email or phone at 231 326 4663 .
