March 27: Signs of Spring
Is snow still covering the ground?

Are you still wearing hats, mittens, and a snowsuit?

Even though it may still look and feel like winter, signs of spring are appearing, and on our walk we will look for clues that the season is on its way.

April 3: Early Spring Buds
This is a great time of year to observe the different shapes and sizes of the buds that are growing on the ends of tree twigs.

Do you know what is hiding inside a bud?

Come take a hike with us and find out.

April 10: Early Spring Mud
Wear your waterproof boots and mud-proof clothes for some serious mud exploration.

Have you ever made a mud castle?

We'll take a close look at worms and other invertebrates that are mud lovers.

April 24: Early Spring Birds
Let's see how many different colors and sizes of birds we can find.

Do you have a beak?

We'll attempt to build a nest with our beaks and our feet, just like a bird.
