A flock of saber-beaked birds of prey will be winging it to Melrose this summer.

Master falconer Jonathan Wood will perch his spectacular raptors in the parking lot of Hunt’s Photo and Video, 100 Main Street, Melrose, on Sunday, July 26th, for a day of free, public demonstrations, education and photo sessions with the charismatic fliers. The presentations will take place at 11:00 am, 1:00 pm, and 3:00 pm. The location is handicapped accessible.

Wood, a renowned wildlife educator, consultant and Nikon pro-birding staff member is the founder and president of Raptor Project, Inc., which trains and cares for the world’s largest traveling display of birds of prey. He tours the country with his wife, Susan, daughter, Rachel, and his collection of predatory birds, demonstrating each species’ unique characteristic while drawing legions of enthusiasts with his humorous, energetic and entertaining presentations. The breathtaking beauties, which range in size from range in size from small falcons and owls weighing 2-3 ounces to majestic eagles with 7- and 8-foot wingspans, command respect and admiration from people of all ages.
