The World Center for Birds of Prey is a great way to spend a day. The Center has been in Boise for over twenty years.  Situated on 380 acres south of town just off Cole Rd, it has taken the Peregrine from an endangered species and as of 2007 placed more than 6000 birds back in the wild and removed them from the endangered list.    While some individuals have spent 4-5 hours exploring and learning about Birds of Prey and Raptors, the average tour length is about one and one-half hours. Tables are available on the grounds, and in warmer weather are a great place to enjoy lunch while watching the local populace of Chukars; Mountain, Gambrels and Califonia Qual; wild Redtail Hawks, Kestrels, Prairie Falcons, Northern Harriers and an occasional Golden Eagle.  I have heard:  ”What a fabulous place to visit!”

The Old Idaho Penitentiary is an interesting site to visit.  It opened in 1872 for the meanest criminals of the west.  In 1973 the doors closed to inmates and then opened year round for visitors.  It is located at 2445 Old Penitentiary Rd, Boise 83712.
