Learn about the Great Lakes
Piping Plover as you paint! For 30 years the Great Lakes Piping Plovers were
missing from the southern shore of Lake Ontario. In 2016 they were seen again
for the first time at Sandy Island Beach State Park and had a successful nest
in 2018. It takes a lot of work to keep this beautiful and rare bird safe at
the park. Hear from some of their protectors about their work as you paint a
picture inspired by the plover. This isn't a painting class, but a chance to
enjoy some science and art together! Meet at the Environmental Education
Center (West Beach Parking Lot). Registration
Required:
ages 10+ (children must be
accompanied by an adult).
