From the Executive
Director

Blackland Prairie Raptor Center (BPRC) began in 2004 with a small but determined group of individuals with a common
goal – to create a place where the people of North Texas could experience birds
of prey and learn about their importance in the environment as a whole.
Blackland Prairie Raptor Center has become a valued community resource,
especially educating North Texas about our birds and their place in the
environment. In the first year of operations we presented educational programs to
schools, festivals, camps and environmental groups, reaching more than 5,000
people.
More than 150,000 participants have experience BPRC’s programs at monthly First Saturday events, Photography Days,
Rods’n’Raptors Catch and Release Fishing Derbies, Scout overnight and week long Day Camps, Special Events, as well
as education programs throughout the community.
In 2007, BPRC signed a lease with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for Brockdale Park. This 66-acre site had been
closed to the public for more than 30 years. Situated on the edge of Lavon Lake, the property’s diverse habitats, plants
and animals, make it a wonderful site for a raptor center. We have developed the area to include a public use area, as
well as private housing for our feathered education ambassadors with more to come, specifically a birds of prey hospital
and rehabilitation center.
To date we’ve invested $200,000 developing the property to expand and improve the visitors’ experience by building
more than 2 miles of trails, an outdoor classroom/observation deck, and an amphitheater, and by planting gardens,
renovating an office, constructing a permanent home for the education raptors, and installing plumbing infrastructure for
future buildings.
Now is the time for BPRC to expand its services to the North Texas community by incorporating Raptor Rehabilitation
into daily operations. The budget for BPRC’s Capital Campaign ‘Builds its Nest’ – Phase 3 is $260,000 to realize the
three key components:
1) Equip a hospital with an initial exam room, intensive care units and necessary equipment
2) Construct flight cages – appropriate to species and size
[Texas Parks and Wildlife Department must inspect and approve the physical facilities]
3) Operations – for long-term sustainability
Our Center Values drive us to always be responsible stewards of contributions: We will build only as funding is received;
We will practice the highest standards of care in treatment and rehabilitation of sick, orphaned and injured birds of prey
with the goal of their release to the wild.
We invite you to become a key member of Blackland Prairie Raptor Center’s future by helping us build a facility
dedicated to the care of North Texas’ birds of prey so that future generations of Texans can enjoy their beauty and
appreciate their importance to the environment.
Yours very truly,

Incorporated as BPRaptorCenter in 2004, Blackland Prairie Raptor Center is dedicated to environmental preservation
through public education and conservation of birds of prey and wildlife in their natural habitat.
Through its work with birds of prey, Blackland Prairie Raptor Center’s (BPRC) Vision is to be a
catalyst fostering a positive impact on life and the environment of Texas.
[pictured: Red-shouldered Hawk]
BPRC identified three corporate Values which provide the foundation and direction for how the organization works to
achieve its Mission in order to reach its Vision:
1. As Educators, we believe in experienced-based, integrated environmental education that heightens appreciation
and respect for birds of prey and their vital role maintaining a healthy ecosystem; and
2. As Conservationists, we are committed to restoring and maintaining the health and vitality of the few remaining
pristine acres of Blackland Prairie eco-region.
3. As Healers, we will practice the highest standards in the care, treatment and rehabilitation of sick, orphaned and
injured birds of prey to enable their release back into the wild.
What is a Raptor? Raptors, also known as birds of prey, have features distinct from other birds:
Hooked beak
Excellent vision and/or hearing – some seven times greater than humans for locating prey
Feet and talons to grasp and carry prey
Raptors include hawks, owls, falcons, eagles, osprey, kites, and vultures (not true birds of prey). As many as 27 species
of raptors live or migrate through North Texas each year.
Since 2004, BPRC has met its Mission through Education programs
offered on-site as well as at schools, community events, festivals, and
other public activities. The most frequently requested programs are:
Whoo’s in the Dark, Predators from the Sky – Gotcha Covered, and
Night Flight. Each program features Raptor Ambassadors, are at least
45 minutes in length, and the presentations are age/grade appropriate
in vocabulary, science and any special needs.

About Blackland Prairie Raptor Center
!
!
In 2007, the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers and BPRC signed a lease for the 66-acre site on Lavon Lake formerly known
as Brockdale Park. To expand and improve the visitor’s experience, BPRC has built more than 2 miles of trails, a
covered outdoor classroom/observation deck, a bird blind, an amphitheater and planted gardens. To centralize
operations permanent caging was constructed for the education raptors and an office building was renovated which
allows us to provide volunteer training for bird care, as well as host seminars and meetings.

In order to work with Raptors, organizations must be inspected and permitted by Governmental agencies.
BPRaptorCenter continues to meet all requirements and is permitted by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service (MB1389820) and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (EDU-0207-818) to provide education programs with live birds of prey.
This year, Blackland Prairie Raptor Center launches the final phase of “Builds its Nest” campaign adding Raptor
Rehabilitation into daily operations.
BPRC is supported by approximately thirty-six volunteers and:

In 2004, BPRaptorCenter (d/b/a Blackland Prairie Raptor Center) was incorporated, received its IRS 501(c)(3) non-profit
designation, and received permits from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to
provide education programs with live birds of prey.
BPRC’s reach now extends beyond North Central Texas. More than 150,000 people from Athens to Austin, Hillsboro to
Houston, Denton to Dallas and beyond have participated in our programs since 2004. School children, Boy and Girl
scouts, and seniors alike benefit from learning about the co-existence of humans and wildlife to our mutual survival.
Blackland Prairie Raptor Center “Builds Its Nest” Master Plan – Phases 1 & 2; $200,000 invested
Each accomplishment represents hours of dedicated volunteer work, showcases private/public partnerships, and
provides the community with more opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors, view endangered Blackland Prairie and
experience raptors in person.

The Future of BPRC
!
!
Please join us in building a facility dedicated to the care of North Texas’ birds of prey so that future generations of
Texans can enjoy their beauty and appreciate their importance to the environment.
Always responsible stewards of contributions, Blackland Prairie Raptor Center staged the ‘Builds its Nest’ campaign and
constructed as funds were received. Aspects of the campaign were interchangeable and many have been executed
concurrently. This third and final stage of the campaign will integrate Raptor Rehabilitation into daily operations, fulfilling
BPRC’s core values to be: Educators, Conservationist, and Healers.
Now is the time for BPRC to expand its services to the North Texas community by incorporating Raptor Rehabilitation
into daily operations. The budget for BPRC’s ‘Builds its Nest’ – Phase 3 is $260,000 to realize the three key
components:
1) Equip a hospital with an initial exam room, intensive care units and necessary equipment
2) Construct flight cages – appropriate to species and size
[Texas Parks and Wildlife Department must inspect and approve the physical facilities]
3) Operations
Ensuring sustainable operations has been the guiding principle throughout all work completed. At a Raptor Center, the
day-to-day costs range from the mundane to unique: utilities, insurance, upkeep and maintenance; appropriate and
varied supply of food to meet species’ requirements;
and staffing. Expansion of community services to
include Raptor Rehabilitation will increase current
operating expenses. Though volunteers allow us
to continue to grow programming and capitalize
upon opportunities as well as provide goods and
services necessary to meet customers’ requests
and patients’ needs, not all will be covered by these
generous people.
As we strive to complete ‘Builds its Nest’, we look
forward to ‘In Flight’. ‘In Flight’, the next 10-year
plan includes new construction to complete the
Public Venue: an Education Facility, a trail
exhibiting live Raptors, complete renovation
of the existing paved trail, access and parking
lot to accommodate increased traffic. On the
Conservation side plans are to construct a
permanent, fully-equipped Hospital which will
be a site for trainings, internships and classes
for those interested in assisting in animal care.

Raptor Rehabilitation
- Value
!
Please join us in building a facility dedicated to the care of North Texas’ birds of prey so that future generations of
Texans can enjoy their beauty and appreciate their importance to the environment. The value of raptors in the wild to
the public is known and documented. Primary among these are:
PEST CONTROL – Raptors are a natural solution - Vintners place nesting boxes for
Common Barn Owls – nature’s best mouse catcher – in and around the vines. The
cost to build the boxes is negligible when compared to that of the mouse traps,
poisons and other means previously used to protect their crops from vermin.
Farmers are happy to see Mississippi Kites, American Kestrels and Red-Tailed
Hawks flying over their fields and near their grain storage facilities. Primarily
insectivores, Mississippi Kites catch insects on the wing and devour them in flight.
They put a large dent in the grasshopper and cricket populations that can devastate crops. The American Kestrel also
eats insects. Better yet, the Kestrel’s vision includes a different light spectrum than humans that allows them to see the
urine trail of mice, another bane to farmers.
Both the Kestrel and Kite are small compared to the Red-Tailed Hawk that helps control populations of larger rodents. In
North Texas, the nightshift working the same areas include, Eastern Screech Owl, Great Horned Owl, and Common
Barn Owls.
BIO-INDICATOR SPECIES - As a predator, a carnivore that eats all types of live food, raptors are an indicator species
for the health of the environment and potential threats to humans.
In the 1970s the Peregrine Falcon and Bald Eagle were headed toward extinction. Dedicated scientists determined
that the chemical DDT was the root cause. Farmers used DDT regularly from the 1940s
to the 1970s. The chemical, applied to the land, was absorbed by plants and found in the
water which was consumed by prey species which were then eaten by the Falcons and
Eagles. Even through secondary and tertiary absorption, the effects of DDT were fatal.
Eggshells were so thin that they broke under the weight of the parent during nesting. The
DDT was being stored in the birds’ fat cells. Today, we know that a number of known
carcinogens and other chemicals are found in human fat stores.
RAPTOR INJURIES - Today, unfortunately, 90% of the sick, injured or orphaned raptors in North Texas are in this
situation due to humans. Some are accidental – car collisions, flying into windows or towers (cell, electrical) as well as
trees downed with an active nest. Others are intentional: those birds shot, poisoned or trapped as a nuisance or trophy,
and some are patients as a result of carelessness: improperly mixed or applied fertilizers cause fatal burns to exposed
skin; poisons left for and ingested by mammals that are then consumed by raptors. This carelessness also impacts
children and pets.
BPRC believes that the care of compromised raptors in an appropriate facility to facilitate healing and allow re-release
will improve the health of our environment. We need raptors to assist in sustaining the ecosystem that we call home.
All rehabilitation requires special knowledge, facilities, and permits or certification. Care of injured, young, or ill wildlife is
essentially the same protocol. Raptor rehabilitation is a highly specialized program, separate even from non-raptor avian
species or other predatory animals. BPRC has among its staff and volunteers several decades’ of subject matter
expertise in raptor rehabilitation as well as excellent working relationships with local veterinarians to augment the on-site
skills.

Raptor Rehabilitation - Details
!
!
In order to receive, treat, and release birds or prey, BPRC must follow very strict rules and obtain permits from Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department and U.S. Fish and Wildlife. Required before any organization is allowed to apply for the
necessary permits are:
1. CLINIC/HOSPITAL – with specific areas to meet the patients’ needs:
a) Exam area – for initial examinations as well as on going medical
treatments for recuperating patients. Certain equipment and
medications are required for basic injuries/illnesses.
b) Intensive Care Unit(s) – separated from all other areas, this
space must be able to house all sizes and species of raptors in a
quiet, calm environment with human contact limited to cleaning,
feeding and medical treatments.
c) Quarantine Room with separate air flow – to use for those with
communicable (to birds) illnesses.
d) Food – storage and prep (mice, rats, quail, etc.) of appropriate, varied dietary needs of all species.
BPRC will also include:
e) Nursery/orphanage – limits human viewing during the many daily feedings to avoid “imprinting”.
f) Office – record keeping, center of operations and training.
2. CAGING – Appropriate for each stage of evaluation and recovery. Caging requirements are based on characteristics
of the raptor species and enable rehabilitators to accurately evaluate the recovering patient’s ability to survive on its
own in the wild.
a)ICU – for close observation, daily treatments, and manual physical therapy
b)Conditioning/Limited Activity – outdoor cages to reacclimatize to weather, stretch wings and strengthen legs hopping
from perch to perch without suffering new/additional injuries
c) Testing/Unlimited Activity – large enough for full, extended flights based on species, to develop skills, including hunting
live prey released for that purpose. Eagle flights must be 100 feet and have a turn of at least 22.5 degrees to make
the bird turn, bank and angle in flight.
Caging materials (wood slats) and sizes are specified in state and federal regulations. All are sealed at the bottom to
prevent predation, and to keep test prey inside. Raptors must pass ‘mouse school’ by demonstrating that they can
support themselves with their hunting skills prior to release.

Though BPRC’s patients are Raptors, our customers are the concerned, caring citizens who found the distressed
raptors. On the phone and in person, trained Volunteers will provide expert advice, assurance and options for the
situation at hand. With instruction, some folks are willing to capture and deliver the raptor to the center. Others will rely
on a network of Volunteers willing to collect and transport the birds. With nestlings, returning the chick to the nest is
best. Our goal is to ensure that each contact knows a bit more about the bird they have rescued as well as how they
have, and can, help survival of raptors in their neighborhood. Patients will also be routed to BPRC through DFW Wildlife
Coalition, Municipal Animal Control offices, and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Game Wardens.
Recent information estimates that in the first full year of operation that BPRC may see 300 patients.
