Marion Natural History Museum250 viewsAfter learning how to build a snake hibernaculum, a beaver lodge, and a bear den, the group tried their hand at creating miniatures for museum display.

Feel free to come in to view any of these creations during the museum’s open hours. Photo courtesy Elizabeth Leidhold.

We also visited with an osprey on Ram Island. We very much appreciate the opportunity to learn a little more about Marion’s bird life. Photos courtesy Elizabeth Leidhold
