Fontenelle Forest

It was a wet and rainy day for our field trip. We were able to touch four critters and learned a lot about their diets and characteristics. We also took a short walk, due to the weather, and then were able to explore the many nature-based activities available in the basement of the center.

Each student touched the box turtle.

Up close and personal with a bull snake!

Reptiles have scales.

 

The bunny wanted to get a good look at us!

 

He was so soft.

The tiger salamander felt like a pickle.

Enjoying our (brief) walk!

The basement of the center had costumes for students to wear.

These ladies are listening to sounds made by nocturnal animals.

Students were able to read many facts about birds.
