Journey into the forest to enjoy the sights and sounds of nature at night.  There are creatures that only come out at night so it is a perfect opportunity to see and hear them. Spend the first part of the program indoors learning about our nocturnal residents then head out into the park for a guided night hike. Suitable for ages 6 years - Adult.  Children must be registered with, and accompanied by, a registered adult.  Advanced registration required; call 503/629-6350.

Learn about Oregon's bats and how to attract these flying bug eaters to your yard. See a slide show, and drive to a nearby site to see bats in action and listen to their echolocation calls using a bat detector.
