Northern Saw-whet Owl Banding – NOT OPEN TO PUBLIC

Please note that this event is for Rushton Nature Keepers ONLY. Saw-What Owl Banding is closed to the public at this time.

Observe Northern Saw-whet Owl banding at Rushton Farm and experience nature at night.  These tiny owls (no bigger than a soda can) travel through Pennsylvania in the fall in search of ideal overwintering habitat.  Learn all about their ecology and conservation from our field scientists, and (hopefully) see an owl up-close.

This event is Birds and Wildlife (Bird Icon), Healthy Habitat (Leaf Icon).
