OSKALOOSA — The Mahaska County Conservation Board invites the public to come to the Environmental Learning Center to learn about owls that live in Iowa and go on an “Owl Prowl” (search for owls). This family event will be held on Friday, January 27, 2023 from 7:00 – 8:00 pm in the lower level of the ELC.  Families can park and enter the building from the south side.

Participants will learn about owls that live in Iowa and even some that visit our state in the winter. They will then go outdoors on a short hike and call for owls in the timber in Caldwell Park. Maybe they will see or hear an owl!  Please dress for the weather.

If weather does not permit outdoor activity, the program will be postponed to a later date.  Reservations are appreciated and can be made by calling MCCB at (641)673-9327 or email decook@mahaskacountyia.gov.
