Northern Saw-whet Owl Banding - Youth Overnight
Saturday, October 13, 2018
Stay up late with NBNC educators and naturalists as we capture, tag, and release these charismatic pint-sized predators. Good fall weather can yield dozens of migratory Northern Saw-whet Owls at our research station in a single night. We’ll keep the nets open from dusk until the wee hours of the morning, using the Nature Center as our home base for catching some shut-eye before breakfast. Owls and pizza included!
A free program for youth/teen birders and naturalists ages 10 and up. Free, but registration required. Participants must bring sleeping bag, sleeping pad, and pillow. Group size limited to 12.
