My absolute favorite part of the owl festival is the hall of fame.  Some of the most prestigious owl biologists in the world come to Houston to receive their awards, and it's awesome to be able to give them a little recognition for the fabulous work they're doing.

My job as the Director/Naturalist of the Houston Nature Center is both environmental education and putting Houston on the map.  I think the Festival of Owls does both.

We fell in love with Houston, MN and its community spirit.....You have solid community support, phenomenal participation by youth (we could hardly believe thirty-seven participants in the owl calling contest!)....Great pancake breakfast at the Lutheran church with friendly people.
