I have visited the Eagle Valley Raptor Center and enjoyed it very much and learned alot about birds that I didn't know. Ken not only rescues hurt Raptors, but rehabilitates them and returns them to the wild if they are releasable. If they are not he either keeps them and uses them to educate the public or he looks for... More

I've been to EVRC twice now and follow their great efforts on Facebook. The good work that is performed there is awe inspiring! To see some of these raptors up close and personal is a chance in a lifetime for most people. Ken Lockwood and his volunteers do an amazing job of being hospitable and make you feel welcomed. Great... More

If you are in Kansas, you owe it to yourself to make the trip to Eagle Valley Raptor Center. It is an experience you and your children will never forget. Ken's love for the birds is obvious and infectious. Ken takes great care to engage everyone there in a one on one type of experience and when you leave you... More

I have had multiple experiences with Eagle Valley Raptor Center. The Peregrin Falcon program he does is fantastic, I saw it at the Botanica, but he will go to schools as well. A perfect program for the Air Capital, as it shows how airplanes are designed after this beautiful incredibly fast and aerodynamic raptor. I recommend families with older kids... More

Learned a lot about raptors and getting my picture taken next to a Bald Eagle was priceless! Would be a great place for students to visit on a school field trip

This is a unique place with one of the most fervent animal lovers in the world. Rescue is their passion and you will see birds being rescued if they have not been returned to the wild.

I was amazed at how well maintained the facility is and what a personal relationship Ken Lockwood has with each of the birds. To be able to see hawks, owls, eagles, vulture, & other species this close is a unique experience. As a bonus, it was also very educational. Instead of reading a sign board (like at the zoo) Ken...

Eagle Valley Raptor Center is by far the one of the best rescue and rehab center for our birds of prey. The facility is clean and well kept and the birds are absolutely beautiful and very well cared for.

We went on a homeschool field trip in the fall of 2010. The rehabilitator engaged the children of different ages equally with questions, hands on experiance, and informative lectures with funny stories. Highly recommended for school trips and anyone with an interest or love of birds.
