Current & Future Forums

Wednesday April 2, 2025 Forum

Jo Doumbia, a certified Virginia Master Naturalist. She will talk about the spring return to our region of raptor birds of prey and the important role they play in our ecosystem. Raptors possess amazing hunting skills as they swoop to capture prey, including mammals, reptiles, fish, and other birds. She will introduce us to different species of raptors in our area and how to identify them, and she will highlight the characteristics and skills of raptors that allow them to hunt other animals.
