Join us at the New Pavilion for Creatures of the Night – Mammals on August 15 from 7-8 pm.
This is the third in a series of three sessions that focus on animals that are active at night. Participants will learn about the value of dark skies on all animal life with this session emphasizing mammals. We’ll talk about bats and other local mammals that are active at night. Following the formal presentation, participate in locating bats using an echo meter. If you’re young and lucky, you might hear them without technical assistance.
Location: Historic log pavilion near the Doughboy trailhead.
People of all ages are welcome. Vehicle admission pass required to enter the park. Pets are restricted from this location. Although this event is “rain or moonshine,” check back here for cancellation in the event of threatening weather.
