Summer Nights at the Hill Can you tell a Katydid call from a Cicada's? The croak of a Bullfrog from that of a Green Frog? Have you ever called owls or listened to birds going to bed? Throw in a little "naked-eye" astronomy, and you have an Owl's Hill Summer Night. Bring a picnic and enjoy an evening learning about the Southern Summer Night chorus and light show from Naturalist, Bob English of LEAPS. Reservations strongly recommended. |
