Eyes on Owls: Live Owl Show
Get up close with some of New England’s most fascinating nocturnal creatures!
Teacher and naturalist Marcia Wilson and her husband, wildlife photojournalist and author Mark Wilson, have captivated audiences of all ages with their live owl programs for more than 30 years. During this unforgettable presentation, you’ll meet six live owls and discover their remarkable adaptations, habitats, and behaviors in the wild.
You’ll also learn how to identify owls by sight and sound—and everyone will have the chance to practice authentic owl calls during a fun, interactive “hooting lesson.” It’s no wonder this is New England’s favorite wildlife program!
Following the program, attendees may purchase signed, personalized copies of Mark’s award-winning books:
