What a hoot—back by popular demand is our Owl Prowl, this time to mark Friday the 13th! Longtime volunteers Rodney Brubaker and Carolyn Muse will offer an indoor slide show to identify the most common owls in our region as well as share historical aspects and superstitions regarding owls. Then, they will take everyone outdoors and call for owls in the wild. With some luck and effective listening, the owls may call back!

Bring a flashlight, dress for the weather, and bring sturdy footwear. This program is recommended for ages 8 and up.

This program is free, but registration is limited. Please register in advance.
