You might call it avian welfare, Social Security for the birds, funding the feath- ered, even banking for the beaked. Like many people, the disabled birds at the Glen Helen Raptor Center are out of a job and need support. Some are grounded tempo- rarily, while others are permanent wards of the Glen. And while the birds do put in several hours a week, with the help of Raptor Center Director Bet Ross, educating visitors and students across the region about the beauty and importance of raptors in the natural world, the income doesn’t cover what it costs to operate their home. If raptors can eat near the top of the food chain, surely those who support them have some right to do the same. The �ve celebrated chefs designing the Glen’s second annual Whoo Cooks for You? will have diners eating from the canopy this �� year to raise money for the Raptor Center. �� The event, featuring a six-course meal for � locovores and old timey music from the �� Corn Drinkers, takes place on Sunday, Sept. 11, at the Outdoor Education Center. Tickets for $150 are still available but are limited.
