ARC is a wonderful place to visit and an organization I am proud to volunteer for. The staff and volunteers are always happy and willing to provide education to the public about birds of prey and their importance to local ecosystems. They always go above and beyond to get people excited about wildlife through educational program involving ambassador birds, flight demonstrations, and more! In addition to their public outreach activities, ARC is crucial player in the care and well-being of Central Florida’s wildlife community. Raptors in ARC’s care are treated with dignity and respect (no matter the prognosis), and the staff takes reconditioning procedures very seriously in order to provide these wild raptors with a fighting chance upon release. Thank you ARC for all that you do. Your efforts are recognized and truly appreciated!

What a terrific group of people! They are knowledgeable, passionate, and enjoy working with the birds. A great place to learn and see birds of prey up close. We had an exceptional time getting to know the birds and the people who work with them. I highly recommend a trip here.

My family and i went there this past weekend. A wonderful little place. Staff was very nice and knowledgeable about all the birds. They had a bunch of pretty owls and hawks. Would have liked to see the eagles i think they were sleeping. Definately go check this place out!!!

I don't think there's anything more wonderful than seeing these beautiful birds rehabilitated rather than put down. It's incredibly educational. And completely inspiring!

This place is amazing. Run mostly by volunteers doing a wonderful job helping injured birds. My wife and I were biking deep in Wekiwa Springs close by and we noticed an injured bald eagle. The rangers notified these guys and they were out there amazingly fast. We showed them where the eagle was and two of them walked into the woods and brought the eagle out cradled in their arms. They immediately started to evaluate it and took him to the center for food and a full checkup. We went to the center the next day to check on the eagle and found a whole amazing display of at least twenty types of birds who were guests staying there due to some sort of injury. Thanks to these bird heroes,!
