We girls went to Black Hill this afternoon for the bald eagle boat ride program. The weather wasn't as humid today as it has been recently, so we actually had a pleasant boat ride.
Julia swore her binoculars didn't work with the smaller end at her eyes, and she saw so much better the other way. Whatever floats her boat, I suppose...
Even though we did not see any eagles this afternoon, we were able to learn about eagles and hold some replicated artifacts. Here's Evelyn with a life-sized (fake) eagle egg...
...and here's Julia with a replica of an adult eagle's talon. It's pretty big!
Evelyn tried on a pair of eagle wings, to get an idea of their wingspan (seven feet!). All in all, it was a fun, one-hour program. Hopefully we can squeeze in one more program before the summer is over.
