Marion Natural History Museum388 viewsOn Wednesday, the Marion Natural History Museum's after school group learned how to identify some of our more common species of birds for the Great Backyard Bird Count. Using telescopes and binoculars the students made, we took a walk to find evidence of birds and other wildlife in the park next door. By participating in the GBBC, the group will be contributing to important citizen science efforts coordinated by the National Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.

Marion Natural History Museum417 viewsDr. Michael Moore of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, using the museum's harpoon and baleen, introduced the Marion Natural History Museum's after-school group to a little of Marion's whaling history. Students could ask questions and theorize why Sippican Harbor had the first recorded visit from a humpback whale this fall. We wish to thank Dr. Moore for the great program.
