Shaver's Creek Environmental Center

The wife and I took a ride up into northern Huntingdon County  to visit the Shaver's Creek Environmental Center. It features educational programs, a raptor center with hawks, owls, and other raptors that are injured in some way and not able to be released into the wild, and a collection of reptiles and amphibians to view. Here are some pics of the raptors they have. Forgot to get any pics of the nice rattlesnake & copperhead that was also there.

                                                               A pair of Barn Owls


                                                          A trio of Barred Owls


                                                                       A Black Vulture


                                                                  A Peregrine Falcon
 
A Bald Eagle


                  A very interesting place tucked away in the Stone Valley region of Huntingdon County.
