A wild day of animals and plants and teeny tiny things at camp today!

We started the day with our last zoo class, then spent the afternoon learning all about how to use a microscope 🔬, the animals the Orange Beach Wildlife Center cares for, what lichen are, how to care for our new air plant habitats, and why we should eat superfoods!

Whew that was a lot… of FUN!!
