In partnership with the Chicago Park District, come and learn about the raptor of the night- the owl! This interpretive program and guided walk will lead participants through the preserve in search of owls.

Beginning birders and all ages welcome! Total trip distance is approximately 1 mile walking. Trails are combination of crushed gravel and mulch. Please dress aggressively for the weather with multiple layers as temperatures can drop rapidly after sunset and owling is frigid business. Flashlights permitted but not required.
