Winter is a great time to be outside exploring the natural world, so stretch your legs and join us for one or more of these winter explorations. For children ages 4 - 12 yrs and their parents.
Animals in Winter: Tuesday, December 29
Animals use different strategies for surviving the cold. Some migrate, some hibernate, and some stay active. Bring your sense of adventure and explore the wonderful world of winter as we discover which animals stay active, how they survive, and where they find their food. We'll look for animal tracks and try to figure out what made them and what stories they tell.
Feathered Friends: Wednesday, December 30
Not all birds have gone south. Join us during this peaceful season as we venture along the sanctuary trails in search of birds that overwinter in our area, including the ever-curious chickadees, nuthatches, juncos, and more. Bring a treat for the birds (nuts, fruit, seedpods, etc.) and we will decorate a tree for them. Bring binoculars or we will provide them if you do not have your own.
Beavers: Thursday, December 31
Have you ever visited a beaver lodge? Join us as we hike to our ponds and wetlands in search of beavers. We will look for lodges, dams, chews, and scent mounds. Learn how a lodge is made and how to recognize beavers' favorite trees.
