Morro Coast Audubon Society presents…
“Raptor Reproduction”
Kara Hagedorn and Sunshine
Learn how raptors define their territory, woo
a mate, and copulate. How do they choose a nest tree and carry sticks?
Anatomically, how do birds lay eggs? What’s involved with incubation and
raising young? Join zoologist Kara Hagedorn and Sunshine, a Red-tailed
Hawk, for an up close program on raptor reproduction. Sunshine was shot and
unable to survive in the wild, but every year she exhibits breeding behavior
and lays eggs. Hear the comical story of how Sunshine’s April Fool’s eggs
became chicks that celebrate Earth Day as their birthday.
