Creatures of the Night
As night falls, the places we spend time outdoors can feel like a very different place. Familiar trails melt into shadow, and the daytime soundscape is replaced with things that go bump in the night as nocturnal creatures come out to play. Join the Elkhart County Parks as we lift night’s veil to reveal the hidden lives of these creatures of the night, from spiders weaving webs to bats on the wing.
In April, pull on your muck boots and fasten your headlamp as we venture to woodland ponds in search of croaks, trills and calls of our slippery, long-legged friends. Learn how to identify local frog species by sound and sight while enjoying the midnight chorus of croakers around us.
