About

Story

Cascades Raptor Center has two main community services:

Public Education designed to enhance the awareness, respect, appreciation, and care of the earth and all its inhabitants so critical for a balanced and healthy planet. The Raptor Center houses nearly 50 avian ambassadors. These resident birds, along with visual media and written material, help create a positive, first-hand experience of wildlife through field trip visits to the Nature Center and out reach presentations and exhibits at schools and public events.

Rehabilitation and release of orphaned, sick, and injured wildlife, primarily birds of prey (raptors), using the highest standards of medical treatment and care, and the best facilities possible.

Mission

Through wildlife rehabilitation and public education, Cascades Raptor Center fosters a connection between people and birds of prey. Our goal is to help the human part of the natural community learn to value, understand, and honor the role of wildlife in preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the Pacific Northwest.

This is one of my favorite Oregon treasures. I've been about 4 times now and the staff here truly love what they do and are very enthusiastic about showing you these amazing creatures. I love the stories behind each bird. I wish each bird had about 10x the space they do, such amazingly majestic creatures, need more space. (Even though many can't fly.) Special treats are the vultures and Asian Owl(?) two creatures you can see up close and are just fascinating to watch in person.

You get up close and personal with lots of intricately beautiful birds of prey that are usually just dots in the distance, if you see them at all (like owls). The species here can, all but one, be found in Oregon too! So we can better understand our ecological surroundings.

nice to see that there is a place that rehabs them. fairly nice variety of them in a pretty location. even though it was rainy it was interesting and the birds seemed pretty content. although you cannot see the ones that are there for rehab and release back to the wild its nice to know your entry fee is going for a good cause

We wanted to see some birds in cages. That's what we got. They have a large variety of Hawks, Owls, & Eagles. Since this is a rescue type operation most birds on display were permanently injured in some way and would not be returning to the wild. It didn't stop us from enjoying these majestic birds. There's about 30 birds of varying types. We liked the Red Tailed Hawks the best (such personality). The parking lot is small, gravel/dirt and on a steep hill.We came on a rainy day and were able to make it up in our minivan. They had umbrellas for us to use. It's about an hour of viewing (don't let your kids rush through or you'll be done in 10 minutes).

Lots of cool birds, about an hour and a half to see them all. Sometimes people will bring a bird out and you can ask questions while they feed it. Very friendly.
