Nice presentation. The length was great for fidgetly young boys who love nature but not sitting still too long. :)

Awesome 2 hour hike and history of the area. We enjoyed learning about the area and the changes to the area when the dam was built. We had a great educator that had just started a few months before and was very knowledgeable considering she only had a few weeks on the job.

The birdwalk begun on time. Binoculars were provided to all of us (to my wife, my 7 year old and me). It was an easy 90 minute walk and we observed osprey, red winged blackbird and a few more. Nice experience.
