‘Who’s That Hooting?’ UT Arboretum virtual program will be Nov. 3


Stephen Lynn and a barred owl.
Join local naturalist Stephen Lyn Bales as we learn about the mysteries of owls at the UT Arboretum Society’s First Thursday Nature Supper Club for November.

Being nocturnal, owls are active when we are asleep and hidden during our daylight hours. We often hear them hooting in the darkness but do not know what type of owl it is or where it is located. Learn all about the owls of East Tennessee and perhaps what’s hooting in your woods.

You provide your own stay-at-home supper, and we provide the nature as Stephen Lyn teaches us about these fascinating creatures.

Due to scheduling issues, the program for November 3rd is pre-recorded and the recording will be sent to all who register.

The program is free and closed captioning is available, but registration is required to receive the recording. Register at www.utarboretumsociety.org. Please contact UT Arboretum Education Coordinator, Michelle Campanis, at mcampani@utk.edu with any questions or registration issues.
