The Adult Owl Prowl is the perfect way to spend a Saturday night in nature. Learn about the wise and wonderful owls you can find in Houston, and get up close and personal with live owls from the Wildlife Center of Texas. After the presentation, participants will head out into the woods to look for owls (and other nocturnal animals) along the Arboretum trails. Enjoy light snacks, wine, beer, and hot drinks to warm you up after the night’s walk.

Come check out the Hogg Bird Sanctuary with Memorial Park Conservancy Staff! Our Conservation Director, Carolyn White, will lead a guided walking tour and talk about the history, conservation, and of course the birds! Participants should expect to walk about 1 mile on potentially uneven surfaces, please wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. All are welcome!
