As a volunteer at Huntley Meadows Park in Alexandria , VA, I would like to
welcome all of you to our annual event- Wetlands Awareness Day, on Sunday, May
6 from noon to 3 pm. This is a great family event and specific to this
group's interests we will be featuring:
Naturalists on the boardwalk with spotting scopes to point out annual
migrants as well as our year-round inhabitants. This is the perfect time of
year
for a great variety of species.
Area experts will have a variety of non-releasable birds of prey . For years
, they have introduced us to close-up looks at different kinds of local
hawks and owls, for example.
For families with young children there will be an entire "games" area where
kids learn about the environment while having fun.
Live music and much more!
