Ever wonder what happens after the nature center closes? Come enjoy a completely different sensory experience and see how much wilder the animals are after dark! Handheld red lights will be provided to each participant to view the nature center in the dark. Watch the nocturnal animals start their day while the diurnal animals settle in for the night. There will also be opportunities for up-close encounters with some creatures of the night.
