Thank you for visiting HawkTalk.Org
Call us at 1-770-720-1847 to discuss hawk rescue. We care for raptors (birds of prey) that cannot be released back to the wild.
We also rehabilitate hawks, owls, eagles, kites, falcons and ospreys.
We need Mouse Money!
We are a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization located in North Georgia providing hawk rescue and care for other raptors (birds of prey) including owls, eagles, falcons and osprey.
We operate our facility based on donations from caring people who, for one reason or another, aren’t in the position to be rehabbers themselves, but are interested in and dedicated to the preservation and protection of raptors.
We also do off site programs for schools, nature centers, scouts, birthday parties, public displays, etc. This is done on a fee basis. Please call for details!
Hacking for hawk rescue or owl rehabilitation.
Hacking is an old falconry technique that is literally, thousands of years old. Hacking (AKA soft release) is how we re-introduced the Golden Eagle back to the Cumberland Plateau in northwest Georgia, the American Bald eagle to the Lake Allatoona area north of Atlanta and the Peregrine Falcon in downtown Atlanta. We can help you with this procedure or provide it as a service.
For more information, see our blog post on Hacking Orphaned Hawks and Owls.
Here’s what we have going at Facebook
August edition of Georgia Magazine.As the article correctly states - we receive no state or federal funding and rely on donations to help the injured and orphaned raptors.

Update in the young hawk.
I love this! Our Little Hawk came back like that for a few visits (I cherished those moments so much!).
Ur awesome lady thank u for all u do for this beautiful creatures
So beautiful !
This is Mima's Eagle over in England. If you ever hear that I have run away from home, look for me at her place. 🙂Situated right above the base of the tail, the uropygial gland secretes a hormone called ergosterol. It's smeared on the feathers by using the beak for their bodies and dabbing some on their shoulders to 'wax' their head. It conditions and helps to waterproof the feathers.
When they spread their wings out like this, they are utilizing the UV rays of the sun to convert the ergosterol into Vitamin D, which supports their immune system.
What kind of eagle is this?
Beautiful bird!
Awww...thanks Lillie!Yet another way to help us put rats in the table and it won't cost you anything.
