The Open Door Bird Sanctuary’s season of being open for the public officially took flight on Saturday. Open Door Bird Sanctuary is now open to the public on Saturdays until Labor Day weekend. In 2020 they found people liked the idea of private tours in which they didn’t have to be in large crowds. That has carried into 2021, as Executive Director Rob Hults says they’ve already done more private tours this year than all of last year. 

Hults predicts the trend will continue into the future as people enjoy the more personal and interactive visit of a private tour. On Saturdays, the sanctuary also made the switch to feature their Raptor Programs throughout the entirety of their public viewing days this year.
