Recent Sightings at Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge

Picture
Owls are the big news of the month at Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge. Stop in the Visitor Center and we'll share the locations of three cavities that screech owls frequent, and we can even point you in the right direction to see an active great horned owl nest! 1/31/20
You're invited!

​Join a refuge volunteer and become a citizen scientist for the Monthly Census, held the first Sunday of each month at 8:00 am. Bring your binoculars and dress for the weather. Meet at the trail head parking area. Call 419-898-0014 with questions.
