Come and learn about critters big and small! We'll be using binoculars and magnifiying glasses to count how many critters we can spot around the park. We'll hunt for turtles, frogs, squirrels and insects that call the park their home, and we'll even turn over logs to see what we can find. We'll also learn about animals that use their super vision to hunt for prey, and we'll look to the sky to find birds flying overhead. This is sure to be a SPEC-tacular adventure!
Suggested ages for this program is 5-12 years old. Older and younger children are welcome to attend but must also be registered. All children must be accompanied by a registered adult. We will provide binoculars for all participants ages 5 and up, including adults.
