Braddock Bay Raptor Research (BBRR) is a 501(c)-3 non profit, volunteer based organization.
Founded in 1986, BBRR has been continuously working towards preserving the area’s natural resources by focusing research and education activities on the spectacular spring raptor migration, and summer natal dispersal. Research at Braddock Bay focuses on a range of topics important to conservation efforts, including the daily and seasonal distribution of raptors according to species, age and sex, and the behavior of raptors in migration. Educational programs are offered throughout the year and aim to expose people to the wonderful world of raptors through field experiences as well as off site visits.

The Book of the Raven; Corvids in Art & Legend
Miscellaneous Authors
Corvids play an outsize role in the human imagination. We keep ravens in towers, emblazon rooks on banners, find crows in the constellations and make sure to salute solitary magpies. We also see our own behaviour mirrored in this diverse family of birds, who are tricksters and thieves as well as problem-solvers and gift-givers.
This beautifully designed book showcases the visual and literary life of the corvid, from Norse legends to Game of Thrones. It includes beautiful and darkly seductive photographs and paintings as well as texts and poems in which they play a starring role and information about the traits that make them so intriguing to us.
Winter World; The Ingenuity of Animal Survival
Author:Bernd Heinrich
From flying squirrels to grizzly bears, and from torpid turtles to insects with antifreeze, the animal kingdom relies on some staggering evolutionary innovations to survive winter. Unlike their human counterparts, who must alter the environment to accommodate physical limitations, animals are adaptable to an amazing range of conditions.
Examining everything from food sources in the extremely barren winter land-scape to the chemical composition that allows certain creatures to survive, Heinrich's Winter World awakens the largely undiscovered mysteries by which nature sustains herself through winter's harsh, cruel exigencies.
The New York Pigeon
Behind the Feathers
Author: Andrew Garn
The New York Pigeon is a photography book that reveals the unexpected beauty of the omnipresent pigeon as if Vogue magazine devoted its pages to birds, rather than fashion models. In spite of pigeons' ubiquity in New York and other cities, we never really see them closely and know very little about their function in the urban ecosystem. This book brings to light the intriguing history, behavior and splendor of a bird that we frequently overlook.

2015 Canadian Great Horned Owl 1 oz Silver Coin
From the Royal Canadian Mint
Struck with one ounce of .9999 fine silver, this IRA approved coin is an ideal investment for silver stackers and nature enthusiasts. Like each design in the four-coin series, the Great Horned Owl has a limited mintage of 1,000,000.
The detailed reverse features a spread-winged owl with an intense glare; its sharp talons outstretched, reaching toward its prey. Emily Damstra’s design is surrounded by inscriptions of “CANADA,” “.9999” and “FINE SILVER 1 OZ ARGENT PUR.”
A symbol of both power and agility, the Great Horned Owl is Canada’s most familiar bird of prey. Its food source includes rats and mice, rabbits and other small rodents and mammals, but it has been known to hunt any animal it is capable of overpowering. The remarkable bird is also known for its ability to adapt to many climates.
The obverse carries a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt, which is seen on each Birds of Prey coin. Along with Her Majesty’s name and the year, the coin’s denomination of $5 is also inscribed.

Feathered Marvels
Author: Dominic F. Sherony with Randi Minetor
From the discovery of the fossil Archaeopteryx to more than 10,000 different documented species today, birds have become the second most diversified class of vertebrates on Earth. Birds have evolved extensively since they first emerged in prehistoric times--but that diversity could dwindle and even vanish unless we take steps to conserve their habitats, ensuring that they sustain their numbers and their variety.
This natural history of birds starts in the distant past--going back to the Jurassic, Cretaceous and Paleogene periods--in order to get a broader understanding of the birds that we see today. Chapters cover their lives, breeding, flight, migration and more, while also highlighting some especially unique bird fossils, such as the Pelagornis Sandersi, which had a wingspan of more than 20 feet. Also included are chapters on the loss of needed habitats, the current decline of native birds, and what can be done to reverse it.
