Birding
on the Swamp Rabbit
Hello Nature Play Club! The weeks
are flying by this spring and we are quickly approaching our next club outing.
On May 14th, we will be expanding our citizen science skills while
exploring the Swamp Rabbit trail through Cleveland Park. Our focus will be on
our feathered friends; birds! Yes, birds are in full swing (or shall we say
flight) this time of year. We can hear them singing in the waking hours of the
morning. They busily foraging in the grass after the freshly fallen rain. Baby
birds can be seen hungrily awaiting for mom to return to the nest. They are
everywhere, however they have become so much a part of our day that they
commonly go unnoticed. However these brilliant creatures play an important part
in our local ecological system. Come on out and take a closer look at these
magnificent creatures as we observe their day and become more familiar with the
native species. We will meet Saturday morning, May 14th at 10:00 AM
in front of the Greenville Zoo entrance rain or shine! The current forecast is
sunny mid-80s, but that may change, so please dress appropriate to the weather.
We will plan to explore the park until around 11:30 AM. If you are not a member
of the club and would like to join please click here.
Hope to see you there!
