Felina, along with all of the owls at Birdsacre, love New England. On this Superb Owl Sunday, they are all hooting for the Pats

We are delighted that Reversing Falls Sanctuary is contributing a percentage of sales from this event to support the birds at Birdsacre. Both Ziggy and Gauch are hoping Ramona and the other artist included a vulture in one of their pieces.

Our registration building has a new coat of paint and lots of new information on the inside. Please make sure to register each time you visit. This will help us know when to schedule tours and such.

Anybody involved in a construction project knows that it always takes longer than expected. After digging the ditch, laying the conduit, and now filling the ditch in, we can see the light at the end of the tunnel. The next phase will be to have Fidium get internet into the avian enclosures. (FYI - no, Ziggy and Gauche will not be texting, but we will be able to keep an eye on them when cameras are placed in their enclosures.) Thank you, Maine Community Foundation, for the grant which will make our dream a reality!

Do you know of a 10-14 year old who would be interested in learning what old cameras and cyanotypes have in common? We will have some old cameras to open up and explore before making a cyanotype like this one on Saturday! Registration is required and a parent must come along to join in on the fun! https://www.birdsacre.com/onsite-programs/sun-prints-and-the-basics-of-photography

We appreciate your patience over the past weeks. This ditch will allow Fidium's internet to reach our avian enclosures. The final phase will be placing cameras to observe what our ambassadors are up to when we are not watching. Many thanks to the Maine Community Foundation for making our dream a reality!

Our birds are settled back into their enclosures and are ready for your visit. However, we are still UNDER CONSTRUCTION. When you visit, please watch your step and use the planks provided to cross the small trenches. We can't wait to tell you what's coming next for this project, but we definitely wouldn't want it to leak out to Ziggy.
