Cool education place to bring babies and young children, especially when it's cold and rainy. There is always a "talk" by one of the volunteer wildlife ambassadors educating the kids about the local wildlife and the differences between wildlife and pets. Beware: The volunteers do feed the birds dead mice and other things while speaking.
In the Exhibit hall is on one floor and is small. You can easily see everything in one hour. but can stay longer for each "talk" (one per 30 minutes to an hour). There is a bird area that there are live birds and owls sitting above the glass enclosed bird habitats, which you think are stuffed because the birds don't move at all.
Lots of interactive exhibits for kids of all ages to engage and learn from. The active bee hive is very cool by the window - the bees come in and out from outside and go into the clear "hive" to made honey.
There are live snakes, bunny, guinea pig, mice, rat, possum and a tarantula to look at. Lindsay is also an active wildlife rehabilitation hospital for the East Bay and offers wildlife education programs and camps starting at the age of 2 through teens throughout the year at very reasonable rates.
This place does great work! They are highly educated and share this with the community at large. The facility is clean and bright and engaging. It is small so don't plan to spend more than 2-3 hour max most likely. Littles get to interact with small animals and you get a glass wall view of their intake and operating room where you actually get to see it in action at scheduled times during the day.
The staff was excited and friendly, there are so many displays, both interactive and analog to learn about many different types of animals. Very cool place!
Another great value, become a annual Lindsay member and you can also get in free or get a 50% discount to visit six Bay Area science attractions, including Oakland Zoo, and more than 300 across the United States.
Super awesome place with a large variety of birds. Very helpful and friendly staff!
Diaper changing table in the women's restroom. Tiny-sized elevator to get up to the Exhibit Hall. In a residential neighborhood, Lindsay has access to additional free parking across the street at the church's parking lot.
This is a very spiritual place if you love birds. I recommend you come here with a open heart and a open mind.
