Effie Yeaw Presentation

This afternoon we went to a special wildlife presentation at the library put on by a representative of the Effie Yeaw Nature Center.  I'm really glad we went.  It was awesome!

 

The lady brought a ton of specimens to look at and touch, 2 animals to view up close, and she shared a ton of information.  Here's a list off all the things we were able to see.  I hope I didn't forget anything.
