TRECA Students Meet Aviary Ambassadors at Ohio Bird Sanctuary

On September 24, TRECA students visited the Ohio Bird Sanctuary in Mansfield, OH

The Ohio Bird Sanctuary is a haven for native birds, a nature preserve, and a living museum dedicated to caring for and rehabilitating Ohio native birds, protecting natural habitats, and creating opportunities for people to engage with nature. Students learned about the mission of the Ohio Bird Sanctuary through a bird of prey presentation and saw some feathered friends up close outside of their enclosures. Students met a red tailed hawk, American kestrel, screech owl. Families learned about each species and why they were not able to be released back into the wild. Students then took a guided hike along the trails, learned about a variety of flora and fauna, and toured the bird displays and songbird aviary.
