Owl Prowl and Star Watch
After the meeting we went on an owl prowl. We waited until after dark and walked to a wooded hill. The birders called the Saw-whet. I could here an answer in the woods behind me!! Then they called the Barred Owl. The children thought the call sounded funny..but we couldn't laugh out loud! A Great-Horned Owl answered back, but he did not fly in close to us.
Larry Bogan showed us the constellations. Saturn is in Leo and Mars is off to the right of Leo. We saw a space station and some meteorites (falling stars). He pointed out many constellations. I remember the Big Dipper, Little Dipper, Caseopea, Gemini, Virgo, Northern Cross, Leo, Scorpio, Cancer,....
We had a good time and it was VERY educational! |
