World Owl Day 2025

International Owl Awareness Day (IOAD) raises awareness about our beloved nocturnal raptors annually on August 4.

Owls have long captivated us with their mystery and perceived wisdom, but their representation in pop culture media, folklore, and material possessions does not always do these magical creatures justice.
Despite their prominence in diverse international cultures, we often unintentionally harm our beloved owls.

International Owl Awareness Day not only celebrates the humble owl, but it also educates our community on how they can join us in conserving and protecting these fantastic beasts.


There will be book readings, meet and greet, funny stories and lots of owls!

More information will be added soon.
