UC Master Gardeners: Raptors and their Role in the Environment - San Jose

Date: June 26, 2022

Time: 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Contact: UC Master Gardeners

Sponsor: UC Master Gardeners, Santa Clara County, CA

Location: Martial Cottle Park in the UC Master Gardener Pavilion

Details: The word Raptor is used to describe a group of birds, also known as "birds of prey". The presence of raptors serves as a barometer of ecological health; threats like pesticides, habitat loss, and climate change have an impact on them and helps us detect environmental change. They also play an important role in controlling populations of rodents and other small mammals.

We will host California Falconers Chi Ma in our education pavilion
