Special programs listed below for children ages 6+ are also available each day at 11:00 am.
Monday, April 19: Binocular Basics for Families - Do you know how to use binoculars? Would you like to learn? Join Audubon for a walk on the trails, look for birds, and learn how to properly use optics. Binoculars will be provided, but bring a pair if you have them.
Tuesday, April 20: Powerful Pollinators – Why are bees and other pollinators so important? How do they impact our everyday life, and how can we help ensure their survival?
Wednesday, April 21: Cooking for the Birds - Become a “bird chef” and create unique and tasty dishes for the feathered friends in your backyard! This easy activity puts pantry items to use while helping the birds survive the cold winter season. (Not recommended for those with nut or seed allergies.)
Thursday, April 22: Wetland Exploration - Take a walk down to the freshwater wetland and discover animals that live there. Who might be awake this time of year? Who might still be sleeping? (Note that participants will not get wet.)
