Bird Songs - 10th Anniversary
Celebrating its tenth year, Bird Songs has established itself as a highly anticipated event showcasing Nashville’s most talented singer/songwriters. Set in the round in a relaxed and comfortable setting on the Center’s campus, this event has sold out every year.
Due to popular demand, the Avian Conservation Center is now hosting Bird Songs on two separate event nights – Thursday, May 8th AND Friday May 9th.

Owls By Moonlight
Owls are creatures of the crepuscular hours – the transitional times of dusk and dawn. The timing of their activity along with their characteristic silent flight make them very difficult to see in the wild. Visit the Center for Birds of Prey for a special, nighttime program that focuses entirely on owls.
