Contest: Name Those Birds!

We will accept entries through June 30, and announce the winning names in early July. Nature Center staff will choose the winning names. Each winner will be able to meet our resident birds in a special up-close-and-personal session.

The Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center has three new resident birds, and we need the public’s help to name them.

A broadwing hawk, a barred owl and a screech owl have all become permanent residents of the Nature Center in the last few months, two because of injuries that make them non-releasable and one that came to us from a rescue that could no longer care for it.

Enter the naming contest by posting your suggested name(s) on the appropriate photo on our Facebook page (link is here: http://tinyurl.com/ld8wguq).
