Birds in Motion

Please note: Birds in Motion has ended for the summer 2026 season and will return next year!

For thousands of years, people have been inspired by the power and grace of birds of prey. From the soaring majesty of a Bald Eagle riding the mountain thermals to the sharp-eyed precision of a Hawk circling high above its territory, these raptors embody the true spirit of the wild.

In partnership with the Pacific Northwest Raptors, Grouse Mountain invites you to experience the thrill of a live bird demonstration. Watch these incredible hunters showcase their natural abilities in spectacular free-flight, right before your eyes.
