Animal Shows Scheduled Thursdays through Sundays; 
Watch the Thrilling Birds of Prey Show Beginning July 2
 
BRIDGEPORT, Conn. – July 1, 2022 --As part of the ongoing 100th year celebration, Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo is excited to bring Master Falconer Brian Bradley to the Adventure Amphitheater this summer.  Bradley is among the nation’s premiere wildlife presenters and will be presenting two shows each Saturday and Sunday at 11 am. and 2 p.m. through September 4. 
​Guests will be amazed as they watch birds of prey in free flight as Bradley demonstrates their special powers. Get a closer look at owls, hawks, and falcons from around the world, and learn how these beautiful birds play an important role in our environment at the top of the food chain. Discover their amazing adaptations for survival in the wild and hear about the ancient sport of falconry and its training techniques. See these trained winged athletes in action through an exciting, informative program for all ages.
 
Bradley has presented at the historic Wave Hill Estate in Riverdale New York as well as alongside wildlife conservation legend Jim Fowler of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom. 
 
This very special program is brought to the Zoo by a generous grant from the Werth Family Foundation.
 
In addition, the Zoo’s Education Department will present their Centennial Live Animal Program every Thursday and Friday at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., beginning July 1 and continuing through September 2.
