FLY BY FRIDAYS

Meet Stormy

…our 2 year old male Aplomado falcon. ‘Stormy’ was born in June of 2020 at Raptor Ranch during one of the worst wind storms. The storm was so horrendous that it destroyed an plane hanger at the airport just across the way. That’s why his name is so fitting.
As his skilled handler Ashlea monitors him through his routine, Stormy continues to fly high even during crazy winds. So come on by and watch him fly!
