The Morley Nelson Snake River Birds of Prey National Conservation Area features the most nesting birds of prey anywhere in North America with more than 800 pairs of hawks, eagles, falcons, ospreys, and owls, among other birds and wildlife. There are few public facilities in the undisturbed National Conservation Area where cliffs are 700 feet high, and the Snake River meanders below. The birds are not on display, however, and your best chance of seeing them is to bring binoculars, visit early in the morning or in the evenings, keep your eyes up, and don’t get too close. Visit the Word Center for Birds of Prey in Treasure Valley to see raptors on display.
