Berkshire Botanical Garden
Join wildlife rehabilitator Tom Ricardi for his ever-popular presentation on birds of prey. This program is designed for all ages. Tom will share fascinating facts and information about many different magnificent birds, demonstrate some of their unique behaviors and inspire children of all ages to appreciate, respect and conserve these important members of our wild kingdom.
Tom Ricardi is a licensed rehabilitator and wildlife biologist. He runs Massachusetts Birds of Prey Rehabilitation Center in Conway, MA, and is now retired after 40 years of service as a Massachusetts Environmental Conservation police officer.
Our popular Family Friday series is for students and stewards of all ages! Our expanded programming includes presentations and events every Friday throughout July and August on a variety of topics from insects to snakes, mammals, raptors and more. Family Fridays are free with Garden admission (BBG members are admitted free of charge). Join us as we encourage an innate curiosity about the natural world and promote a deeper connection to our Berkshire landscape and world at large.
Free for members and children under 12; free for non-members with admission to the Garden.
