Students age 3 to 5 are invited to join us for Wildlings: Brilliant Birds on Friday, August 6th from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at Hitchcock Nature Center. Why are some birds so colorful? Do all birds build nests? How do they fly so high? Campers will answer all these questions and more as they learn to use binoculars, climb our observation tower for a birds eye view, learn about wings, & even meet a live bird friend.
