The group walks down to the American River at dusk, watching and listening for nocturnal wildlife while eyes adjust to the dark, then picks out the fall constellations and stellar objects visible through binoculars. Along the way the leader talks about navigating by the stars, tells some sky stories and shares what to watch for in the winter sky. Participants should bring a warm jacket, flashlight, binoculars and a water bottle. Tickets are non-refundable and the program is limited to ages 13 and older, so it suits teens with an interest in astronomy or nature, with a parent. ## Similar picks in Sacramento - [Creatures of the Night at Effie Yeaw Nature Center](https://grassyknees.com/sacramento/activities/creatures-of-the-night-at-effie-yeaw-nature-center--listing-50baa41c548479c6dca92c2f) — Sun, Oct 25 · 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM · Effie Yeaw Nature Center, Carmichael · From $20 · checked Oct 24.
