About this Event
WEBINAR
SPES educators are offering an interactive online club for children who are passionate about animals, keen to learn more about them, and want to help protect them. We will explore wildlife in Stanley Park and around us through art, activities, short presentations, Q&A, and more!
In our free introductory session of Critter Club as a part of Vancouver Bird Celebration, young minds ages 9-13* will explore high flying Stanley Park raptors including Bald Eagles, Barred Owls, and Sharp Shinned Hawks! We’ll look at real taxidermy specimens from the SPES collection to discover how strong these birds’ talons are, why they’re at the top of the food chain, and learn their haunting calls! We’ll also have some fun activities you can do after the program to continue learning about these amazing birds.
Clubbers will be offered an optional exciting activity to do on their own over the next week! Activities will be based around sustainable living and learning how to protect our precious wildlife.
