Before the 7:30 p.m. talk, The Reser and OMSI offer a free hands-on session, Hunters of the Sky, from 6 to 7 p.m. in The Lab: students learn how hawks, owls and eagles hunt, explore adaptations like silent flight, and dissect owl pellets to take home their findings. The pre-show lab is for ages 8 and up and space is limited, so reserve a free spot. The main presentation suits curious tweens, teens and animal-loving families; tickets are $31.75 to $56. ## Similar picks in Portland - [Curiosity Kids at OMSI (ages 3-5, bilingual)](https://grassyknees.com/portland/activities/curiosity-kids-at-omsi-ages-3-5-bilingual--listing-21a5952b4c3f95527ae6ed7f) — Sat, Oct 24 (+5 more dates) · 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM · OMSI Discovery Lab · Ages 3–5 · Paid · checked Oct 14.
