From the Center for Wildlife

Lucy, our non-releasable Eastern Screech Owl ambassador, along with our team of educators had a blast educating students from Barrington Middle School at the summit of @mtagamenticus today!

A couple hundred students spent the day exploring Mount Agamenticus and learning a variety of topics including habitat, conservation, wildlife and more.

      This is the type of owl I got to hold this spring and it is indeed tiny.

      It’s a little larger than a soda can and weighs the same as a half empty, or half full, can.

      That’s what I was going for!

      It’s a beautiful Screechie, and a beautiful backdrop. It’s not all that often we get such bright and vibrant pics here. 🥰
