Just a reminder, tomorrow Saturday October 1st, there will be a Falconry Event held at "The Beaver Creek Wildlife Education Center" in southeastern Columbiana County, from 11:00AM to 4:00PM. Join master falconer Mick Brown, along with his Harris's Hawks, and other falconry experts as they show the birds they use to hunt prey. Demonstrations will be held during the afternoon in the grassy area behind "The Center". The Center is a natural history museum with over 350 bird and mammal mounts in natural settings. Full size Musk Oxen, Mountain Goat, Caribou, Mountain Lions, and Grizzly Bears, are a sampling of the mammals. See how many of the mounts of the 187 species of Ohio birds on display, you can find with a provided checklist. Great Gray Owl, Black-billed Magpie, Chuck-will's-widow, Golden Eagle, Painted Bunting, and even Passenger Pigeon, are just a few of the exciting birds on display. As an added bonus, also taking place in the adjacent Beaver Creek State Park, on both Saturday and Sunday, from 10:00AM to 4:00PM, is The Pioneer Days celebration. The annual event takes place in the restored village area and includes arts and crafts, demonstrations, food, apple butter making, grinding of grain in the old mill, and the annual duck race. If you make the trip to this scenic corner of Columbiana County, we guarantee you won't be disappointed. "The Center" is located at 12798 Echo Dell Road, East Liverpool, Ohio. Hope to see you there!
