May 1, 2026. 7:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Set out on a night time adventure with Hungry Mother interpreters as we explore how owls thrive in the dark. Enjoy the chance to examine wings and skull specimens up close as we provide some information about our local owls. We’ll call out to these elusive birds and see if any decide to make an appearance. So keep your eyes sharp! This is a short gentle hike on grassy paths and on a short section of graveled trail.
