Description

Even in the depths of winter there are signs of the coming spring. One of the first of these signs is owl mating season. Learn about these amazing birds then venture into the night to search for them in the woods. Bring your own drinking water; potable water is not available in these locations. Due to the nature of the program, they ask that you do not bring pets, strollers, nor wagons.
