Description
Step into the role of nature investigator as you explore the Boston Nature Center's winter landscape, searching for the tracks, scratches, and signs left behind by animals navigating the snowy terrain. Each clue reveals a story: where animals traveled, what they were doing, and how they're surviving the season's challenges.
Through guided exploration, you'll develop skills in reading and interpreting wildlife signs, learning to identify which creatures remain active in winter and the remarkable adaptations that help them thrive in harsh conditions. From footprints in fresh snow to telltale marks on trees, you'll see the landscape transform into a living storybook.
