Thanks for a Great Year!
Your interest and enthusiasm for the great outdoors and what we offer to the community here at Pickering Creek Audubon Center is always a fantastic source of strength and energy for our tireless educators and volunteers. After 141 programs for school children, 3 volunteer events, Harvest Hoedown, and about 10 family and outreach programs in just the last 4 months, we are taking a little breather over January.
The trails are still open daily from dawn to dusk, free of charge- as always, and we welcome you to explore the quiet season of Pickering Creek. Listen to the leaves beneath your feet, the Geese in the fields and on the creek, the eagles overhead, and ducks in the wetlands. They will undoubtedly nourish your soul, as they have for thousands of others this year.
Thank you for your committment to nature and our work to connect people of all ages with it! We have accomplished a great deal together and look forward to another great year!!
Happy Birding,
Mark Scallion
Center Director
Wingwatchers Needed!
