Ghosts and goblins aren't the only things that come out at Halloween, so do the owls!
Join us on the eve of Halloween, Friday, October 30, from 6:30pm until 8:00 pm as we hit the Cedar Creek Trail to talk about and call one of the park's most mysterious nighttime creatures, the eastern screech owl. Hoo knows, we might even hear and see a few of these spectral forest denizens, if the spirits are with us.
