Description
Ages: 10 through Adult | All children must be accompanied by an adult.
Instructor: Tom Sheppard, Chief Park Naturalist
Eastern Screech Owls are beautiful birds and can easily adapt to most woodlots as long as a cavity hole is available. However, if your woodlot does not have a cavity hole to offer, fear not, they will easily adapt to an artificial nesting box. I have talked about these boxes with Virtual Program, now let’s get together again and build in person. We will learn a little bit about Screech owls and then use the rest of our time to assemble the boxes. Wood will be pre-cut, and screws will be provided. Please bring your own #2 screwdrivers. Limit one box per family.
Cost: $20 per kit (one kit per family group). Register here: https://secure.rec1.com/NJ/hunterdon-county-nj/catalog
