Owl Presentation and "Hike"

February 27, 2010 - This event was a big success, despite the fact that the snow and rain cut the hike part a bit short. We still had a great indoor presentation by birder Rich Guthrie, Larry Federman from Audubon New York, Paul Novak from NYSDEC and Brian Robinson who brought the real star of the show, a live owl.
