That Chickadee Feeling

10/18/2013

 
One activity that brings smiles to the faces of any group that visits Mud Lake is feeding the black capped chickadees that thrive in this setting. Originally, we planned to search out decomposers, but after a student announced that he had brought food for the birds and showed us some bread in his backpack, we had a brief class discussion on why feeding ducks and geese bread wasn't a good idea (for more information on this check out this link from the Canadian Wildlife Federation website).

Seeing the disappointment in their faces, we brought some sunflower seeds and went in search of chickadees, and also managed to find a few decomposers along the way.
