Join a Ridges naturalist for an Owl Prowl on Feb. 4 at 6:30 pm to learn some of the more common calls and then take to the trails. Hikers should dress warmly, wear appropriate footwear and bring a flashlight. Program fees are $10 per adult for Ridges members, $13 per adult for the general public and $5 for children under 18.
