Go on an owl prowl at the Schuylkill Center

Escape the city and get close to nature

On Saturday, Jan. 30 the Schuylkill Center invites guests to grab flashlights and search for owls from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. The nighttime nature walk is open to all ages. 

Before the hike, guests will meet the Center's rehabilitated screech and great horned owls to learn about the physical and behavioral characteristics that make owls exceptional hunters.

The Schuylkill Center was founded in 1965 as one of the first urban environmental education centers in the country. Today, the Center remains an island of green within the city where all are welcome to discover nature.

*An earlier version of this post had the date as Saturday, Jan. 23 but due to pending weather conditions the event is pushed back to Saturday, Jan. 30.
