All proceeds for the auction will be donated to the The Raptor Rescue Society, our non-profit partner organization that rescues, rehabilitates and releases injured, orphaned raptors. This year we have fantastic local donors and some amazing items up for grabs. From the top, left to right: Sunflower mosaic by Veronica Scott, (Jury the Turkey Vulture, not for sale), Sea glass earrings by Susan Koch, needle felted Barn Owl by Nan.c designs, and a men's (and women's) eagle pine t-shirt by Westcoasttees.

Mark your calendars, September 5th is Vulture Awar

Mark your calendars, September 5th is Vulture Awareness Day! Normally we would hold a fun little event at our centre with a bbq, Vulture activities, and a silent auction, but because of Covid-19 we are unable to do that this year. We are still going to run an auction through our Facebook page though! We already have some amazing items up for grabs such as this enamelled sheet steel vase by Margot Page and this stained glass box by Donnie Doherty, both being modelled by the lovely Phoenix, a Turkey Vulture.

This auction is hosted by The Raptors, with proceeds going towards our sister organization, The Raptor Rescue Society.
