Bear Brook Field Trip

Today we conquered the mosquitos and beat the rain to have a wonderful field trip.  I am going to try to walk you through our field trip by showing you some pictures.

When we arrived at Bear Brook, we met our counselors for the day, Brian & Hannah.  They showed us around the fields and then took us on a nature walk.

On our walk, we stopped in a wooded area and searched for animals. We found a newt.  Then we saw a large rock that was brought to us from the Ice Age.  We also walked to a marshy area and sat quietly to listen for nature (and swat flies).

After, we went to lunch.  It was during lunch that students got a lesson in composting.

Then it was off to the ponds to scoop animals from the pond.

Thank you for a great day!
