Owls of Wisconsin

Optional overnight package with morning workshop on February 19, 2025
Birds come in all shapes and sizes, but one in particular is well-known as a symbol of wisdom... or even an omen of death! With their haunting calls, majestic looks, and secretive natures, it's no surprise that owls have inspired mystery and awe for thousands of years. Take part in an immersive presentation and explore the hidden secrets of these elusive nocturnal hunters with Treehaven educator and owl enthusiast Fox Carvis, alongside the education team from Raptor Education Group, Inc. (REGI)! Discover and observe the unique adaptations that set owls apart from other birds, then learn to identify the different owl species found in Wisconsin. You will get the chance to observe REGI's live owl ambassadors and learn their stories as we discuss the threats owls face in a changing world—and what you can do to help conserve owl populations in Wisconsin and beyond!
REGI is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of injured or orphaned native bird species and public education of wildlife issues. Founded in 1990 by Marge Gibson and her late husband, Don, REGI was initially focused on educational programming and field research on avian species, but quickly grew to address the need for a rehabilitation center in the area, especially for raptors and swans. Today, REGI takes in anywhere from 800 to over 1,000 patients each year and provides educational programs to hundreds of people.
+ Optional overnight package with lodging, breakfast, owl prowl, and owl pellet workshop on February 19, 2024
Eager to learn even more about owls? Take the experience a step further with an optional overnight package, where you will have the opportunity to embark with Fox on a guided pre-dawn hike across Treehaven's trails in search of wild owls, then dissect owl pellets for a closer look into an owl's diet and eating habits! Overnight package add-on includes lodging, breakfast, morning owl prowl, and owl pellet workshop on February 19th.
