Artosphere: The Falconer - Bird Abatement Demos and Walmart AMP Mini Tour

The Falconer

Bird Abatement Demos and Walmart AMP Mini Tour

DATE: Sunday, May 19, 11am & 11:30am

LOCATION: Walmart AMP

TICKETS: FREE with registration (Registration available May 6)

ABOUT:

As the largest outdoor concert venue in the state, the Walmart AMP is attractive to birds for shelter and roosting – but that can quickly become messy. Rather than taking invasive steps to remove the birds, the venue participates in sustainable and eco-friendly Falconry-based bird abatement. Groups of 30-40 people will be invited to watch the fascinating natural process as trained raptors patrol the surrounding area, intimidating nuisance birds and discouraging them from roosting on the premises.
