12th ANNUAL FUNDRAISER - OWL-O-ween

WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!

thank you to all that joined us!!!

We were so happy to see old friends and so many new friends to share our wonderful Bird Ambassadors with!  It was a packed house, Sold Out!  
We brought back one of our most favorite things to do while the Silent Auction items were organized, we played Jeop-Bird-eee again.  We laughed and learned, exactly what we love to do.  Everyone had a great time and the Birds strutted their stuff as usual.  Now the work for next year's event begins, we hope that you will join us again.

"Whooo" We Are

Welcome, it's nice to meet you here! We are Hawks Honkers & Hoots (HH&H).
We're a 100% volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2013.
We adopt injured, non-releasable birds of prey and waterfowl that serve as education ambassadors to teach others about birds in Northern California.

Kelli - FOUNDER

Kelli has had a passion for Birds of Prey her entire life. Growing up in the Bay Area, she often visited theme parks. While her friends were on rides, she attended every animal program possible. As an adult, she is living her dream - caring for birds of prey, her dogs, cats and mini farm, including 3 donkeys!

Jeanette - VP

Jeanette’s love of nature and wildlife was nurtured growing up along the coastal cliffs and inland valleys of San Diego. Her childhood was spent camping and exploring the US with her family. She was a nurse for 32 years, and in her pastime, plays the alto sax, flute & highland bagpipes!

Our Team

Comprising a diverse blend of talents, our team includes a Carpenter/Safety Manager, a retired Nurse, a Tesla employee, and a Vet Tech. United by our passion for birds of prey and waterfowl, we go beyond presentations to ensure the smooth functioning of our organization.

Our Mission
Inspire respect for local and migratory birds through customized and entertaining educational programs

BEHIND THE WINGS...

"Your wonderful presentation during our Franklin Community Library Re-opening Celebrations was a highlight for our community. The families and young people who attended your presentation with the glorious birds of prey were delighted to see them up close and learn more about their lives and habitats.  Your group went beyond our expectations to work with our schedule and for that I will be forever grateful."

"Excellent! The presentation was educational, yet casual and, as usual, there was something new for everyone to learn. And, the new cast of four, beautiful birds was spectacular. Thanks to Mary Hanson for organizing such a great event and to Kelli and the HH&H team for sharing their expertise and wonderful birds. Outstanding!"

​"Kelli and the HH&H team are awesome. They are very knowledgeable about and skilled with the bird ambassadors, and it is clear that the team and birds enjoy being together. The presentation was fun, informative, and left all the audience wanting to spend more time with the birds, Kelli and the team.

"Tuleyome would like to thank HH&H for one of the best-attended lectures we've ever had in our 'Nature to You' lecture series. Our guests were enthralled with the presentation and even raised their cellphones to take photos throughout. After the lecture, several participants went onto our Meet Up site to rave about the partnership. It is truly gratifying to be able to work with such energetic, positive, and proficient partners who make such an impact on the nature-loving members of our community."

"We completely loved and enjoyed the presentation. Both the teacher and students cannot stop talking about it. Both of you and your birds were a hit! The girls cannot stop talking about how cute Clicky and Digger were. As for the boys, they enjoyed seeing the bigger birds, Trek was definitely their favorite. You made an impact on our students. I had a young girl come up to me and say, 'Mr. Perez, I would love to work with birds like this, I am going to do some research and hopefully I can find something locally and volunteer.' From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all that you do."

"I have been organizing children's programs for the Contra Costa County library for almost 25 years and I would like to let you know that you did a fantastic job. I appreciate your complete professional approach to your work. It made the whole experience worry free from beginning to end. But the response of the children is what is most important. They were fascinated by the birds you brought and with the displays of feathers, etc. You did a great job of entertaining a truly intergenerational crowd. Thanks very much for the fun time!"
