2024 Naturalist Programs
Owl Hoot
Saturday, Feb 3
registration preferred
Owls may dazzle us with their calls but they are also full of other amazing adaptations for survival. Learn about the twelve owl species that can be found in Minnesota and how they survive year round. An outdoor hike under the moon to call for owls living at Saint John's is also an option! This is a great event for kids so bring the whole family!

Beginning Birding
Saturday, Mar 16
registration preferred
Before the trees leaf out in the spring it can be easier to learn to search for and identify common bird species. Beginning birders will spend some time indoors for a short presentation but will spend most of the time outside on the trails. Be prepared for any combination of snow, ice, water, and mud - it is March in Minnesota!
