Raptor Aviaries
Notice: Our resident birds are temporarily off exhibit. Due to new federal regulations, additional licensing is now required to possess educational birds. Our birds may not be on public display until we hace completed this licensing process. We apologize for the inconvenience and will return to allowing public access as soon as we can.
Directions
Sharon Audubon Center houses various species of Birds of Prey such as hawks, owls, falcons, and an eagle that have been determined non-releasable—meaning that they would not be able to survive on their own in the wild. The birds reside in large, outdoor aviaries, which are just a short walk from our Visitor Center building.
Visitors are welcome to explore and enjoy our center's trails and gardens, and view the aviaries, daily from sunrise to sunset. We appreciate any support you can give, and suggest a donation of $5 per person.
