A fun event is set to take flight in Grand Bend as the Lambton Heritage Museum presents a Birds of Prey showcase.
The PA Day event, organized by Wild Ontario, will take place from 11 a. m. to 4 p. m. on Friday, April 24.
Visitors can find out about birds of prey while getting an up-close experience with them.
Wild Ontario is a program at the University of Guelph that gives non-releasable birds a new purpose by educating and inspiring others.
This marks their third visit to the museum.
“Their Birds of Prey program was a huge hit with families last time, and we’re thrilled to offer this educational experience again,” said Museum Educational Program Coordinator Colleen Inglis. “It’s a unique opportunity to learn about the birds, their behaviours, and the important role they play in Ontario’s ecosystem.”

Meanwhile, the Oil Museum of Canada will invite guests to “rock on” during its geology-themed PA Day activity.
From 11 a. m. to 3 p. m., visitors can stop by to explore various types of rocks and minerals. There will also be hands-on activities like making pet rocks and pressing salt dough fossil impressions.
“Geology might seem hidden beneath our feet, but it plays a huge role in our daily lives,” said Oil Museum Educational Program Coordinator Christina Sydorko. “The geology of Lambton County is especially unique and fascinating as it supports an entire oil industry. We’re excited to have families explore these amazing natural materials and the different ways they are used every day.”
Admission for both events is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and students, $3 for children, and children aged three and under can attend for free.
