What students experience
Wonder is where the lesson begins.
A live owl has a way of changing the room. Students lean in, notice more, ask better questions, and connect classroom ideas to a living animal standing just feet away.
Programs can be adapted for formal or non-formal learning, specific grade levels, scout badges, environmental units, and accessibility needs. REGI recommends programs for ages five and up.
Think like a scientist
They compare beaks, talons, wings, hearing, camouflage, and other adaptations to understand how each species survives.
Ask real questions
Questions are welcome throughout the program, with dedicated time to follow students' curiosity wherever it leads.
Become a steward
Every encounter closes with practical ways young people can protect birds, habitats, and the wild places around them.
