Why do ducks fly south for the winter? Because it’s too far to waddle! Join us for this program to learn what makes a duck a duck and how their camouflage helps them and then go on our own duck hunt! After that, we will sit down and discuss the requirements for entering the Federal Junior Bird Stamp Contest and start our artistic entries by sketching some posed ducks. Draw inspiration from the Federal Duck Stamp Art Display.
Fee: Free!
Age: Ages 6-12. Children must be accompanied by a registered adult.
