On Tuesday, February 21, Braddock Bay Raptor Research Co-Director Daena Ford (center in photo) presented Winter Wonders at Braddock Bay Park for children in pre-school through 1st grade.
The program included story time, a wildlife detective walk, and a craft session.
The story “Waiting for Winter” was read by Linda Bender, an education volunteer, to start the program and prepare the participants for their wildlife detective walk by telling them what animals do in the winter.
During the wildlife detective walk participants looked for tracks of wildlife and discovered winter adaptations of local wildlife. The program concluded with a craft session in which the children made tracks in clay of wildlife they found on their walk, drew pictures of birds, and got a visit from Mr. Eagle.
