Winged Ambassadors

Bird of PreyBirds of prey are such fascinating creatures, and Georgia-based conservationist group Winged Ambassadors have shows available to come to you for any event, allowing you to see and learn about these birds firsthand. The shows usually consist of a minimum of 5 different birds and can be as simple as a one-half hour show to a more in depth 2 hour show. They offer free flight shows, lectures, or even one on one conversations in a mix and mingle atmosphere.

Winged Ambassadors’ mission is to help educate and promote environmental conservation, especially the protection of wildlife. They are dedicated to help spread the word, through educational programs, on the importance of wildlife and the crucial roles they play in the environment on which we all rely. Their show is a message of hope that one day many of the endangered birds of prey will return to their former glory. Due to Winged Ambassadors’ diligence, as well as all other conservationists, some of their dreams have come to pass, as birds like the Peregrine Falcon have come to thrive in such numbers that they have now been removed from the Endangered Species List. There is still much work to be done and they will continue on in their efforts to educate so others can learn the importance of preserving these creatures and the environment for the future of this world!
