IAATE Conference, Minnesota Zoo – February 2012
A beautiful king vulture. |
I had the enjoyment of being an artist vendor at the IAATE (International Association of Avian Trainers and Educators) conference when it was hosted locally by the folks at the Minnesota Zoo. I was able to get away from my table on zoo day to get a behind-the-scenes tour of their bird facilities, collection, and how they run their educational shows for the public. It was a wonderful experience with a great group of people!
One of the prettiest red-tail hawks I’ve ever seen. | An adult harris hawk. | Spectacled owl. |
Another view of the king vulture. Gorgeous! | Adorable touraco. | And of course, a penguin! |
