Shipley Nature Center

Last week we had our habitat field trip to end our month of habitats! This field trip was Amazing! The staff were very knowledgable and great with the kids.


My Big Guy got to be the leader!


"Eyes on the side, I like to hide"
"Eyes in front, I like to Hunt" an awesome lesson about prey and predators that included getting to see lots of real animal skulls.


SCAT! In this hut we learned about animal scat (poo)! The boys got to see several samples of scat from different animals and see what they had been eating...eeewww....and awesome.





Snakes!





Yes, we got to pet the snake and tickle his underside, no really he was ticklish!


Furs! Mammals have Fur!


Little Man lost interest at the end but loved climbing the trees.





And last but not least insects!





Petting a Beetle!


I would do this one again any time!
