Enjoy a special up-close encounter with real owls as you have a close look at their features and beauty. Learn how to identify local nocturnal birds, listen to their calls and even have the unique opportunity to hold one of our night hunters. After we have finished looking at these beautiful birds, we will head out into Piney Lakes Reserve in search of wild owls, tawny frogmouths and their habitat and along the way we may even spot some other local nocturnal critters such as bats, frogs and spiders. 

Please note this experience is for the whole family but children must be ages 6+ to participate. Tickets must be purchased for all attending participants.
