Every October, hundreds of Northern Saw-whet Owls migrate through the backyards of slumbering St. Croix Valley residents, passing unseen through the night. These tiny owls weigh only as much as eight Oreo cookies, yet travel distances in excess of 800 miles in search of safe wintering grounds.
Join St. Croix River Association staff and local owl researcher and Executive Director of Carpenter Nature Center in Hastings, MN, Jennifer Vieth at the Lift Bridge Beer Company to learn about the international research underway to unravel the mysteries of the Northern Saw-whet Owl’s seasonal movements.
