We make an annual visit to the Fall Flights and I highly recommend you do the same! It's an incredible learning experience and so fun too. For fans of raptors, or those on the fence, you'll find it hard to not want to get invested in protecting these vital parts of the ecosystem.

Outstanding experience! I learned so much from the very knowledgeable and kind volunteers and to be able to see such amazing birds so up close and in person was mind blowing! Definitely recommended 5 stars.

This is an incredible experience. We did the live raptor demonstration, and it was definitely an experience. If you are even remotely interested in birds of prey I'd highly recommend visiting.

Who knew Boise was home to an international movement to preserve Peregrine Falcons and other endangered birds? You'll learn this and more plus if you catch one of the shows, you'll see live birds that can't adapt to the wild being cared for. It's heart warming and eye opening , don't miss it.

This place was great the volunteers were helpful and very experienced. I believe it was Julie who had 900 hours which was impressive until we meet someone with 1500 hours needless to say they enjoy it.
Honestly it was very nice my only complaint is that the facility is a bit small and most of the birds are indoors. Unlike the condors (picture attached) the peregrine falcon is my favorite bird of prey so it was nice too see it and I would probably go back. Price seems a bit steep for what is there but they do alot for conservation so they say, which makes it more worth it.
All in all, it was a very nice experience.

This is one of the nicest bird sanctuaries that I've ever had the pleasure of visiting. The overall exhibit is amazing and the must-see falconry demonstrations are world class. Add in the incredible Falconry Archives Museum and it is just a fascinating experience for lovers of Birds of Prey, or just birds and nature, in general. Kudos to your efforts and your knowledgeable, helpful and awesome staff.

I'm not a big fan of birds but this place almost converted me. The outdoor show is as up-close as you get, with birds dragging their feathers across your head as they fly over. Great variety of birds and demonstrations. Staff was clearly devoted to the cause. I think kids would think it both cool and scary and fascinating, so they'd be talking about it for days afterward. Price is family-friendly, too. Highly recommended.
