From the zoo's website:
Raptor Canyon is home to four species of raptors, some of which are endangered. The most interesting feature of this beautiful exhibit is the way the area is designed to allow the birds to fly over guests' heads as they explore the enclosure.
At the entrance, guests find themselves in an aviary where they can view pairs of crowned eagles and Andean condors. These large raptors are separated from the public by a mesh barrier, making for a magnificent view of these birds of prey. As visitors continue on they will see a milky eagle owl, a pair of harpy eagles and a pair of bateleur eagles
