Learn to identify the creatures outside your window by listening to their chirps and songs!
What makes those amazing songs we hear outside our window during the warm summer nights? Is that a cricket or a katydid or a treefrog? Come join Hands On Nature as we learn to decipher which fascinating creatures make each sound. You might be surprised at what you learn, and your nighttime listening experience will be greatly enhanced!
