Alberta Birds of Prey Foundation

Found 11 kilometres east of Lethbridge, the Alberta Birds of Prey Nature Centre aims to connect people and nature. Open seasonally, the centre has been active since 1982 with the goal of helping educate the public on Alberta’s native birds of prey.

The centre provides an engaging hands-on experience for people of all ages, allowing you to get up close and personal with various bird species while you learn about their importance in our ecosystem. At the sanctuary, you can witness flying demonstrations, feed ducks, visit the Eagle Courtyard, enjoy the walking paths, and check out the natural history centre. A primary focus of the organization is the rescue and release of injured hawks, falcons, eagles, owls, and vultures; these birds come from all across Canada to be rehabilitated and released back into the wild. A visit to the Alberta Birds of Prey Nature Centre is a fantastic way to learn more about the bird species in Southern Alberta while supporting their rescue and release.
