During the daylight hours, we see all of the familiar wild animals one would expect, such as squirrels, birds, turtles and the like. When the sun goes down, it awakens the creatures that we rarely see in their natural habitat such as racoons, opossums, and bats.
If you or someone you know is a fan of wildlife and would like to explore the woods to see these nocturnal animals up close and personal, you can do so safely with Friends of the St. Clair River.
In partnership with Port Huron Parks & Recreation along with Sanborn Park, they are having their Creatures of the Night event on Friday, September 23rd from 7 PM – 8 PM.
Located at the new Sanborn Woods Multi-Use Trail, the event will take participants on a guided hike to learn about the nocturnal wildlife in our area. All ages are welcome, but children must be accompanied by an adult. The event is free, so bring your future zoologist to explore and see the city in a different light.
For more information, contact Sanborn Multi-Use Trail at (810) 984-9760.
