About the event
Warm up those paws, dust off that fur and join us for a crepuscular crawl! It can be tough to spot mammals in the wild. At the beginning and end of each day, there's a special hour around sunrise and sunset where many animals begin to stir, we call this time "crepuscular hour". It's more common to see mammals during crepuscular hour, so we're crawling the trails at Beaver Lake Bird Sanctuary late in the day to see if we can spot some of our furry friends!
We will host staggered crawls throughout the bird sanctuary every 30 minutes beginning at 4:30. We will meet in the Beaver Lake Bird Sanctuary parking lot near the trailhead at the start of each walk. We will also have mammal artifacts to observe, activities set up throughout the duration of the program and more. This event is open to all ages and will be organized…
