Naturalis Marcia Wilson from Ipswich introduces the audience to owls found in New England as well other parts of the world. A slide show begins the program by showcasing colorful wildlife photos by her husband Mark Wilson. Marcia imitates the owls’ calls herself, paying special attention to the more common owls that we might encounter in our area.

After a hooting lesson and much audience anticipation, Marcia brings out the live owls one at a time. With each owl perched securely on her gloved hand, she walks out
Among the audience with six or seven owls.

There’s plenty of time for close-up views, photos and questions. Children can also do a stamp hunt of the Harry Potter on Stamps exhibit for prizes. Remember that Hedwig the Owl
carried the mail in the Potter books.
