Visit the corn snake, black rat snake, and other animals in residence at Mambourg Nature Center. Relax in the nature observation area to watch birds and small animals at the feeders or see what creatures may visit the pond for water. Will it be a family of deer, a skunk or raccoon, ducks or geese, or even a bobcat?
Pick up a scavenger hunt sheet to take out on the trails. Bring back the completed sheet to get a prize!
