On Wednesday, we had a surprise visit from the Outdoor Discovery Center. The students learned about the birds of prey, their adaptations, and specific features they have. The students studies different birds with partners. Then we saw a Barn Owl and a Red Tail Hawk. The ODC is a great resource in our community.
