Aviary Tours

Eagles are an integral part of our culture and lifeways, revered as guardians and messengers. Honoring our connection, the Citizen Potawatomi Nation Eagle Aviary offers a permanent home for injured Eagles and other raptors unable for wildlife reintroduction. It also serves as a space for ceremony and educational programs to reconnect our people to the living Eagle.

Wanting a tour of the Eagle Aviary in person?

Tours of the Aviary are available Thursday - Saturday, by appointment only. We recommend booking as soon as you have a date, as days/times are limited.

Drop-in tours, or tours requested outside of Thursday - Saturday, are difficult to accommodate, due to Aviary cleaning and maintenance schedules, off-site presentations, and prescheduled Eagle viewings. All tours are subject to change during inclement weather for guest and Eagle safety.
