Birds of Prey in Texas

Welcome fall with this season’s featured Distance Learning program, Let’s Talk Turkey, and tie into the fall raptor migration with our Peregrine Falcons program.

Can’t get enough falcon facts? We have you covered! Check out the Fascinating Falcons issue of our free youth mini-magazine, Critter Connections, for more bird facts and activities.

Did you know the Texas Wildlife Association has a library of TEKS-aligned, on-demand distance learning? All 20 programs can be found on our distance learning webpage and cover topics like Animal Adaptations, Life Cycle, Water Cycle, Ecosystems, Food Chains, and Classification. These videos are available 24/7, have accompanying follow-along worksheets and post activities, and the best part- always free to all educators!

Golden Hawk

   Looking for a good animal research project? Why not give „Birds of prey“ a try and at the same time learn about your states species and what animal are in danger of becoming extinct. I live in the state of Texas, here we have quite a few hawks. This website „here“ shared some more detailed information on each. Some websites also offer live animal viewings. 

  I spotted a raptor at Tracy Aviary in Utah “here”.
