Date: 4/8/24 3:39 pm From: NSAudubon Publicity <northshoreaudubonsoc...> Subject: [nysbirds-l] Owl Prowl @ Garvies Point, LI - This Saturday, 4/13 at 7pm
North Shore Audubon Society will be hosting an *Owl Prowl* at the Preserve
at Garvies Point Museum at 7pm on Saturday, April 13. The Preserve
<https://www.garviespointmuseum.com/preserve.php> is located at 50 Barry
Dr, Glen Cove, NY 11542.
Join us as we look for any active owls such as the Great-Horned Owl and
Eastern Screech Owl that have been spotted on the preserve. Garvies Point’s
habitat includes connecting forests,thickets, and meadows that cover the 62
acres preserve atop glacial moraine. In addition to owls, racoons,
opossums, and deer have been spotted on the preserve grounds. There is no
guarantee about what we will see but it is guaranteed that you will get to
experience Garvies after dark!
The walk will be led by North Shore AudubonSociety board member and Garvies
Point Museum and Preserve Educator *Justin Frankl.* Justin is an avid
birder who got into birding after a Red-Tailed Hawk swooped over his head
while studying ornithology at Muhlenberg College. Since coming to Garvies,
Justin has led field trips of students throughout the preserve teaching
young students about the wonders of nature present at Garvies Point,
including the sixty species of trees and over 140 species of birds that
frequent the preserve throughout the year.
