International Vulture Awareness Day

The National Aviary will hold a full day of activities and programming focusing on vultures. The day will include a trainer-led feeding in the outdoor Andean condor exhibit, talks, a condor wingspan display, vulture biofact table and a scavenger fact hunt with prizes for those that find all their clues.  Children will have the opportunity to make their own vulture mask, play a vulture population game, and learn about vultures at a special story time.  The National Aviary will also formally launch a fundraising campaign to build a new exhibit area for its Andean condors.
