Mass Audubon Habitat: Nature Detectives, The Way of Winter

Sharpen your observation skills and uncover the mysteries of the winter season. Analyze animal specimens, search the schoolyard to see how nature survives the cold, and conduct hands-on experiments. Who’s active in the chill, and what clues do they leave behind? Which animals snooze, or skip town, until spring? Record your discoveries in your own nature journal as you investigate weekly themes like wildlife tracking, winter insects, tree identification, hibernation, and more. Be ready to head outdoors; snowshoes will be provided when the snow is deep.
