| Eyes-closed forest imagination time |
The Young Naturalists spent the day at the Amethyst Brook conservation area yesterday to discuss layers of the forest and to explore the inhabitats of a river. Look what they found!
Last week the whole camp watched Maizie, our resident corn snake, eat her weekly meal. This was an important event to witness because Maizie had not eaten all spring long - for three months! We told the campers that we had been worried, but that one day we learned the reason why: Maizie laid eggs! The whole time she wasn't eating, her body was preparing to lay her first batch of eggs. Maizie didn't have a mate, so the eggs were not fertile. We were glad that she finally ate again!
