This week, we got to learn a bunch about the wildlife living in and around the Provo River Delta, and how wetlands help so many other environments. On Wednesday, we learned about different types of wetlands, then went out on the Provo River Delta to see waterfowl, shorebirds, fish, and bald eagles in their nest! On Thursday, we learned about the life cycles of animals and how beavers shape their environment. We went to Alligator Park to kayak, where we saw some ducks and a great blue heron! We spent all Friday on the Provo River Delta, either kayaking or birdwatching and going on a treasure hunt. We saw a bunch of cool birds and fish, including hawks, hummingbirds, herons, carp, egrets, pelicans, and bald eagles! The whole week, both the kids and the educators had a wonderful time and learned lots!
