Owl Prowl
March 22 @ 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
Learn about nighttime birds of prey during an evening hike in the woods at the nature center with a Buttonwood naturalist. The Owl Prowl is part of Buttonwood’s Naturalist Discovery Series of programs.
The Prowl is led by naturalist Mary Claire King, Buttonwood’s watershed science coordinator. King will present a brief introduction to owls and lead the group along park trails.
During several stops, the group will pause and listen for various owls, including the great horned owl, the barred owl and the screech owl.
They will try to spot owls or other nocturnal creatures. Patience is required when trying to find owls. Participants must stand quietly for short periods of time to watch for owl flight and listen for owl calls.
Participants should wear dark clothing and sturdy shoes, and bring a red-light flashlight if they have one.
