The Brodhead Watershed Association will host another in its Water Wiser Kids called What's Under That Log? on September 15 at the Seven Pines Natural Area in Cresco, Monroe County.
Turn over a log and you’ll always find something interesting. Earthworms or ant eggs, beetles or mushrooms, or one of the beautiful treasures of the Poconos: a salamander. The Pocono area boasts one of the greatest diversities of salamanders on Earth.
Participants will explore Seven Pines and walk an easy trail into Ice Lake Natural Area, turning over rocks and logs along the path in hopes of finding natural treasures. What will you find?
Darryl and Jackie Speicher of Pocono Avian Research Center will present this outdoor exploration event for children and their families.
Wear sturdy shoes and dress to be outside. If you wish, bring a picnic supper to enjoy before or after the program.
The program is free, but registration is required. Call 570-839-1120 or send email to: info@brodheadwatershed.org to register.
This event is part of the Water Wiser Kids Series sponsored by Brodhead Watershed Association, funded by a Dr. Claus Jordan Endowment Grant from Lehigh Valley Health Network Pocono Foundation.
