The PNA Roundtable serves as a forum for discussion of issues related to parks and natural areas, promotes the PNA Award Program, and maintains a regional inventory of parks. The PNA roundtable facilitates information exchange and planning efforts between various stakeholders and collaborators to protect and preserve parks and natural areas across the region.
The PNA Roundtable meets the second Monday of January, March, May, July, September and November and is open to anyone interested in participating.

We all love owls. There is something captivating about these beautiful, silent, nocturnal hunters. In this class we’ll explore the astonishing adaptations and fascinating behaviors of these unusual birds. Learn the real truth about “wise old owls,†their tubular eyes, asymmetrical ears, whiskered beaks, and sensitive emotional lives. We won’t see live owls, but we will handle plenty of specimens and even dissect some owl pellets to investigate their diet.
Wear walking shoes and dress for the weather.
Learn about the animals of Armand Bayou and the habitats they live in. Demonstrations vary from week to week: mammals, birds and reptiles.
