Twilight Wander

November 9, 2022 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Free
Join Nebraska Game and Parks staff and Nebraska Master Naturalists for a Twilight Wander in Wilderness Park. This family friendly program is all about observation of the natural transitions of this season. There will be so much to see, hear, and experience!
What to expect:
In addition to seasonal changes, this program will also focus on the transition in nature from day to night. We will meet at 5:30 PM in the Wilderness Park parking area at
7399 S 1st St #7367, Lincoln, NE 68522
Join the exploration as we watch the sun glisten through the branches of the trees and listen for owl calls as it grows dark. Sunset will be at 5:15 PM and it will be dark by 6:50 PM. We will provide red lights when it gets darker so you can see where you are going without compromising your vision for the night sky.
Remember to dress for the weather and be sure to use the facilities before you arrive as there are no available bathrooms nearby.
