What animals migrate? The answer may surprise you!
Join us for a fun and informative program all about the species that migrate and the reasons behind their incredible journeys. We’ll meet some of our animal ambassadors who could migrate in the wild, then take a short walk through our pollinator garden and around the pond to look for migrating butterflies or birds.
