After returning the screech owl to its travel cage, Gallagher re- turned to the crowd with a larger barred owl. Weighing in at two pounds, this owl likes a wetlands habitat. As Gallagher tilted her arm enough to throw the owl off bal- ance, his wings opened and flapped soundlessly. Gallagher explained that an owls’ wing has serrated feathers which give it quiet flight, allow- ing the owl to sneak up on its prey. “The wings have a serrated sur- face, like teeth on a comb,” she said. The barred owl and the screech owl nest in tree cavities or in an owl nesting box. The last owl introduced to the crowd was the great horned owl.

At the end of the presentation, children were invited to move closer and look at the great horned owl or ask questions. Shari Pisarcik and her daugh- ter Rachel, 8, of West Wyoming, were thrilled to see the live owls.
