Travis Audubon Society: Owls of Central Texas

The Round Rock Public Library and the Travis Audubon Society present Owls of Central Texas from 2 to 3 p.m., Sat., September 30, Round Rock Public Library, Meeting Rooms A & B.

You may not see owls frequently, but there is probably at least one species that lives in your neighborhood. This talk explores some of the stories and facts about our regularly-occurring Central Texas owl species, from barn owls to screech owls.
