Honestly, i heard about the cuisine in charleston, but until you here, you have no idea how spectacular it is. Coming up next, we told you she was going to the birds and she is. First today we have something if are you. Sharon made her way to the center of birds of prey. Who is this . Meet bird of prey. Its a wonderful face that hosts baby birds and its a rehab center that gets these birds back in the air. You okay . Vultures circling overhead are a clear sign that you are at the center for birds of prey. Here hawks and other large birds are trained to show off their aweinspiring flight. The training starts early. Doesnt like being in that box. This barn owl sports hads baby down feathers. A name to most would constitute an animal being a pet. We have to be careful that people dont associate this cute young animal that is hanging out around people and behaving like a pet might. This little guy may not get a name, but he has a zoo in colorado waiting to host him. He cranes his neck to focus and explores his surroundings like a toddler. He is hungry and i feed him the lunch of gourmet mice. If you put it in his face and wiggle it. They do more than train our feathered friends. It serves as a hospital for injured birds like this hawk undergoing anesthesia for an xray. A fractured humorous. We inserted a pin surgically to align the bone during the healing process. From wounded wings to broken bones, about 500 wild birds are brought here every year. The goal is to help heal them and when they are ready, the center releases them back to the wild. Like this american bald eagle. Why is the focus here on birds of prey . Every bird has a story. There is a reason why its here and birds of prey because of that niche they occupy in the ecosystem, very often are the first impacted by issues there. Of all, there was one favorite i couldnt wait to meet. This eagle owl. You raise your hand lower and jen drops her hand lower. If you lift your happened and roll it forward, off she goes. Takes your breath away. This up close and personal rush enraptures audiences teaching importance of these winged wonders to the environment around us. You can see attitude shift about how important these birds are to us. When we begin to think about that and to think of how we connect to that and them to us, its a light bulb that goes off. You can see right here what a wonderful place it is. The founder and the director here is with us. Keep your eye on the set. Oh, wow the bird is flying over the audience. Is that safe . Yes, it is. Not if they are going poopoo. This is a bird that was quite a successful conservation story and it was taken from north america due to ddt and other toxins and the bird is now in the population and its stabilized once again. We want to thank you for all you are doing and for coming to see us. We want to thank everybody in charleston. You guys thank you. Jeff singer, star, author, and a model. I sing with my eyes open.
