Story Walk- Counting is for the Birds

Come take a Story Walk^TM at our Horton Grove Nature Preserve! The weekend of the 12th-15th is the Great Backyard Bird Count citizen science project so our stories for this month center all around birds. At Horton Grove you will find Counting is for the Birds by Frank Mazzola where we learn about common birds that visit a bird feeder that have to outwit a wily cat! The Holman Loop circles our restored grassland to create about a 0.8 mile walk, which also happens to pass by our wooden pavilion which is a perfect place to take a break and watch for birds. If you go the weekend of the 12th, consider taking part in the citizen science project to help scientists learn more about the flying wonders of the animal planet.
