7th Annual International Festival of Owls March 6, 2009

Immerse yourself in owls at an international festival that started simply as a hatch-day party for Alice the Great Horned Owl. Families will enjoy the live owl programs, owl prowls to call in wild owls, owl crafts and activities, owl calling contest, medallion hunt, owl-themed food, owl merchandise, and Cub Scout program. For the more serious owl aficionados, there is a banquet featuring Norm Smith, a researcher from Boston who has done telemetry studies on Snowy Owls at Logan Airport; the World Owl Hall of Fame award presentations; and a raffle to benefit the Global Owl Project.
