Discovery Kids Nature Camp
Breathtaking Birds! Tiny warblers tweet and flit from the bushes while raptors soar overhead looking for a meal. While herons wade in the water, cormorants dive below the surface in search of food. This week we will play games and discover why a bird’s beak bends; we’ll study the structure of a feather, and learn about backyard birding all so that a budding birder will be able to start their “life list.” Contact 609-427-3045
