Short Meet an Owl program

For all the kids who want to see an owl and learn a bit more, but don't have the attention span to sit for an hour, this program is for you! Ruby will come out with an educator and you'll learn more about Great Horned Owls and be able to ask questions. The program should last 15-20 minutes.

Saturday, March 4, and Sunday March 5 at 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM at the International Owl Center
