Hoot ‘N Howl: Night Critters of the Laguna with Laguna Foundation

Celebrate all things nocturnal with this Halloween-themed exploration at the Laguna Environmental Center. We will keep our ears open for hoots, visit an owl pellet dissection station, and use a black light to discover nocturnal insects and arachnids that live at the Laguna. Our celebration finale will be watching our local bats leave the Hop Barn for their nightly hunting. They simultaneously depart from their bat boxes as a group most nights during the fall to catch insects after sunset in a phenomenon called a “fly out”. We can’t wait to introduce you and your family to the evening wonders of the Laguna!

Please Note: This outdoor event is fun for all ages but is geared toward families with young children. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.

There is no charge for this event, which is made possible by the voters of Sonoma County who fund the work of Ag + Open Space with a quarter-cent sales tax.
