No plans for February Vacation? Why not spend it experiencing the wonders of winter at Audubon? Join us for one or two fun-filled days of hikes, games, crafts and outdoor exploration! Make sure to pack a snack and a lunch, and be prepared to be outside in all kinds of wintery weather conditions.
TRACKS & TRACES: Hop, waddle, bounce and trot your way around the Audubon sanctuary in search of animal tracks and traces. Learn how to identify footprints and search for clues in the snow and mud as we discover the amazing wintery tales of the secretive world of animals in winter. Warm up your senses and bring your inner detective out!
HOMES & HIDEOUTS: You may not think that snow, rocks, logs, mud or fallen leaves are the coziest places to spend a cold winter’s day, but animals trying to survive the northern winters do. Learn about the many ways local wildlife copes with the cold and snow, while discovering their hiding places at Audubon. Don’t forget your warm gloves on this day – you’ll need them when we build snow shelters for people AND animals!
