We’ll return to the rookery with Dr. Julie Rieder of Science Kids to see how the heron chicks are thriving in their treetop nursery in the sky! Last year, we saw lots of chicks that were just about ready to take flight. This year, we’re visiting the rookery a month earlier to see how they’re growing. Dress for weather, bring binoculars if you have them. We will have some, too.
Free fun for all ages 2 to 102! Please RSVP at the link.

Mason Lee of the University of Wyoming Biodiversity Institute will help us learn about these essential, yet often misunderstood, animals in our night skies. As the sun sets over South Park, these flying mammals will take to the sky in search of insects. We’ll use special equipment that translates bat calls into noises and images we can hear and see as the bats forage above our heads in search of a good meal. Join us as we stay up a little late to experience a world we can only visit with our friends from the Biodiversity Institute on this special bat walk in the park. Please note: If you sign-up for this program, we will also register through the UW Biodiversity Institute Bat Walk program, too.
Free fun for all ages 2 to 102! Limited to 30 attendees. RSVP required. Please RSVP at the link.

It may be the dog days of summer, but you can beat the heat with Unplug! Come explore what lurks in, on and around the water of Big Goose Creek. You’ll turn over rocks and sweep nets through the water to find small insects, worms, crustaceans and more. You’ll seine the stream for the fish you won’t see at the end of your line. And you’ll do what the experts do as you collect water quality samples. Join us, and learn how to keep our waterways healthy, so there’s clean water for everybody including our mud, bugs and fish!
