Gyrfalcon
This 19-year-old gyrfalcon trained and hunted as a falconry bird for most of his life until his eyesight started to fail and he began missing perches and prey. His handler decided that he would retire to Green Chimneys and live out his days in comfort. He has been a valuable addition to the wildlife education program as he is accustomed to being around people and being handled. The Gyrfalcon is the largest true falcon in the world, and its plumage can range in color from a dappled white to almost pure black.
