Please join us to welcome Ian Ives and listen to his talk on the "Owls of Cape Cod". North America’s owls are commonly thought of as secretive and nocturnal forest inhabitants. In fact, many owls can be observed, or at least detected during daylight hours, and with a little experience can be discovered relatively easily. Learn how to identify Cape Cod’s owl species, gain insights into their life histories and discover the art of owling!
