Join the Friends of Boyd Hill and the City of St. Petersburg Parks and Recreation Department for the 9th Annual Raptor Fest. This Raptor Fest will have an emphasis on scavengers. Raptor Fest allows Friends of Boyd Hill to continue its support of the Boyd Hill Nature Preserve Birds of Prey program. This important program not only provides a forever home for non-releasable native birds of prey; it educates thousands of residents and visitors each year about the need to protect these incredible animals that are so important to our ecosystem. Your donations and sponsorships go directly to the care and feeding of the birds, and the resources to offer outreach and education programs with them.
Activities include
- Trained raptors in free flight
- Photo ops with live birds of prey
- environmental exhibitors
- activities for children and families
- bird walks
Food and drinks will be available for purchase. Onsite parking is reserved for those with a handicap permit. Parking for everyone is available at Lake Vista Recreation Center with a free trolley service to and from the event. NO PETS PLEASE
