THE FOLLOWING IS A VERMILION COUNTY CONSERVATION DISTRICT RELEASE
Whoo-hoo wants to learn more about Owls, our amazing nocturnal feathered flyers? Make plans to attend Owl Night on Tuesday, November 12, 2024, at Kennekuk County Park’s Education Center. University of Illinois students in a field-based course on Northern Saw-whet Owl Ecology will share information about the migration and behavior of owls in central Illinois through interactive indoor and outdoor activity stations, crafts, and more. Students will also showcase outdoor demonstrations of the tools used to capture and track owls at Kennekuk County Park.
Drop in anytime from 5:30-8:30pm on November 12 to learn about owl life history, ecology, behavior, and what you can do to help conserve these unique animals. We may even get the chance to see some live owls up-close!
