📺🦉 LIVE from Good Day Columbus!
Yesterday Flannery and I had a fantastic time sharing the incredible world of raptors with the Good Day Columbus team! A huge thank you to hosts Phil Kelly and Amy Wadas for welcoming us into the studio and getting hands-on with some of our feathered ambassadors.
Phil got the chance to handle Irwin, one of our Harris’s Hawks, while Amy met the newest member of our educational ambassador team—Mima, our adorable baby Saw-whet Owl. Mima was named in honor of Jemima Parry-Jones, widely regarded as the godmother of modern falconry.
Of course, no live TV adventure would be complete without a little excitement! During our pre-show practice, Irwin decided he’d rather supervise the production from above and promptly flew up into the studio rafters. After a few tense (and admittedly funny) moments, we successfully called him back down just in time to go live on the air.
Thanks again to Phil Kelly and Amy Wadas for helping us share the beauty of birds of prey and the ancient art of falconry with viewers across Central Ohio.
Come Fly With Us! 🦅
🦅 Step by Step! 🦅
Every raptor must start somewhere.
Our little Harris’s Hawk chick is growing fast and becoming more curious with each passing day. From wobbly first steps to testing those growing wings, it won’t be long before it leaves the nest platform and starts exploring the nest chamber.
Mom and Dad are still doing an incredible job, and this little one continues to hit all the milestones we’d hope to see. For now, we’re enjoying every moment of the journey. ❤️

🪶 Winging It! 🪶
Someone is getting big in a hurry!
Sedosa and Yuma’s chick is reaching another exciting milestone as those growing wings are getting a serious workout. She (we think it’s a girl) spent the day flapping, hopping, and testing out muscles that will soon carry her into the air.
Just a few weeks ago, she was a tiny ball of fluff. Now, feathers are coming in fast, confidence is growing, and the instinct to fly is getting stronger. Every flap brings her one step closer to its first flight. Watching chicks thrive is one of the greatest rewards of our job.
From fluffy chick to future flyer—we can’t wait to see what comes next!
