SUMMARY:An Evening of Owls
DESCRIPTION:An Evening of Owls\nFriday\, April 10 / 5PM – 7PM\n$10 for Members & General Public \nOwls. The charismatic nighttime birds that have captured the hearts and attention of so many. But whoo are they really? Get an insider look at these nocturnal raptors from the perspective of the educators that work alongside our ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Ambassadors. This isn’t just a review of their well-known adaptations\, but a dive into what makes owls unique\, revealing a surprising side of these birds no one usually talks about. So bring a curious mind to listen and admire the odd and strange world of owls! \nJoin ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Wildlife Ambassador Team for a special evening event! \nProgram Schedule:  \n5:05pm – Once Upon an Owl\nHave you ever wondered what our ambassador owls get up to behind-the-scenes? This program will recount three juicy stories about our owls that have never before been shared with the public. Mystery! Romance! Betrayal! You’ll never see our owls the same way again. \n5:25pm – Owls in Media\nFrom novels and films to commercials and language-learning apps\, owls are ever present in pop culture. But how accurate are the media portrayals of these nocturnal hunters? Are they truly wise and all-knowing? Would it even be possible to have your post delivered by owl? And how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? Find out in tonight’s media analysis. \n5:45pm – Owl Diversity: The owls you don’t know\nAren’t owls adorable? Big round eyes and covered in fluffy feathers\, what could be cuter? But how many owl species can you actually recognize and name? There are over 240 species of owl found across the world and they don’t always look like the owls we’re more familiar with. Learn about the diverse array of owl species found across the globe!  \n6:05pm – Why Owls Suck\nIf you’re like most people here\, you’re probably here because you love owls\, but allow me to play the devil’s advocate: here is the low-down\, the dirty and disgusting truths\, and everything you didn’t want to know about owls. You may come away from this presentation shocked\, disgusted\, incredulous and maybe even with the new perspective that owls… kind of suck.  \n6:25pm – Owls As Pets\nWe’ve all had the thought: owls are fluffy and adorable\, so why don’t more people have pet owls? You might even have seen people with pet owls on your late-night social-media scrolls\, night owl that you are. So what’s the story there? How hard is it to get a pet owl\, and to keep one healthy and happy in a human household? Learn all the things you need to know about owl-keeping and come away prepared to educate others\, too! \nFinal Q&A / Wrap-up\nFinally\, we will have time to answer any lingering questions or chat about any of the topics presented.
