Who Gives a Hoot at Steamboat Rock State Park

Event location: Steamboat Rock State Park
Event Date
-
Join Interpretive Specialist Sarah Overby in the Steamboat Rock Day Use Area for a program on owls to learn more about our nocturnal feathered friends and practice our owl calls to hoot with the best of them!

Join us for some educational fun!

Owls are recognized as a symbol of wisdom and as powerful omens in many cultures, and they are incredible predators able to hunt prey with terrifying precision, but that does not stop them from having a sillier side. Who Gives a Hoot is a 30-45 minute program that teaches you about the owl species we have in Washington that you may even have the chance to see during your time in the park. We finish by learning two owl calls that allow you to chat with our nocturnal feathered friends!
