Birds
use a lot of energy to keep themselves warm in the cold winter months. Join us
to make a snack that will help energize the birds in your backyard during this
challenging season. We'll use pinecones, peanut butter, and bird seed to make a
delicious treat for the birds that you can hang in trees near your house. We'll
keep our eyes outside on the bird feeder, record what birds we see and use
field guides to figure out the birds we can't identify. All children must be
accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18. Meet at the Sam's Point
Visitor Center. Pre-registration is NOT required.
