Acorn Adventure: Eagle Eyes with Horizon Wings

February 24 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am

This program was rescheduled from January 20, 2024 due to extremely cold weather.

Children and their families are invited to join The Last Green Valley staff to experience just how long a bald eagle’s wings are, how huge their eyes are and how big they build their nests. Norwich Harbor, at the head of the Thames River, attracts many birds, and bald eagles love the hunting opportunities here. While we are learning about these amazing birds of prey we will have our eyes trained to the skies to see them in the wild. Bring binoculars, a spotting scope or a camera, if you like. After we have searched the skies, Horizon Wings Raptor Rehabilitation of Ashford will join us with some special guests and share even more amazing facts about bald eagles. Registration is not required but appreciated to ensure we have enough materials for children to take home. Acorn Adventures are always free to families thanks to the generous sponsorship of Centreville Bank, however, donations to Horizon Wings are appreciated.
