Owl Prowl

Join other nature lovers for a night hike at Merkle Wildlife Sanctuary. Hikers will learn what owls eat, where to find them and how to identify them by their different calls. This program is open to people of all ages. Visitors should bring drinking water, bug spray and walking shoes.

Please note: The bridge on Fenno Road to Merkle is closed for repairs until further notice. From Rte. 301, take Croom Road. Instead of turning onto St. Thomas Church Road (as most GPS units and maps will suggest), continue on Croom Road, then make a left onto Nottingham Road and a left onto Fenno Road. Merkle will be on your right. Visit the Web site for complete directions. No pets allowed.
