Today Sunday September 28th, from 2 to 3PM under the pavilion, “The Center” will host the Three Rivers Avian Center from Hinton, West Virginia as they present “Wings of Wonder”. They will have 6 birds of prey with them, including two Owls, two Falcons, a Raven, and a Bald Eagle.They will be talking about the birds and tell their stories of how they arrived at the rehabilitation center. Come out for an educational and fun program! Don’t miss it!!
As has been stated before, for those who have not visited "The Center", in reality it is a museum of natural history, with over 375 bird, mammal, and reptile, mounts in natural settings. Everything from a full size Musk Oxen to a Great Gray Owl can be seen, with a Passenger Pigeon thrown in for good measure. In The Ohio Room nearly every bird and mammal you will ever encounter in the state can be found. If you were to take an Ohio Division of Wildlife bird field checklist, 185 of the species on the checklist can be found as mounts at "The Center". In the North American Room can be found mammal, bird, and reptile mounts ranging from Alaska to The Southwest, everything from Mountain Goat to Clark's Nutcracker to Gila Monster, all in a continuous natural setting. BCWEC is located in Columbiana County at 12884 Echo Dell Road, East Liverpool, Ohio 43920. It is also located adjacent to and at the entrance to Beaver Creek State Park. State Wild And Scenic Little Beaver Creek is nearby just down the road. BCWEC is an all volunteer organization, operating totally from donations and grants. No public funding. Stop by and you will be surprised at what you find. “The Center” will be open from 1PM to 5PM. The season is winding down, with only one more weekend for the season being open.
Good weather is forecast!!!
