Joyfully Connecting Our Community with the Wonder of the Refuge



Creatures of the Night

What do owls eat? Find out by dissecting an owl pellet.

How do bats find their food? Learn from our fun and friendly naturalists.

What does the Refuge look and sound like in the dark? Use your senses on a guided trail walk.
