What are those giant dark birds soaring in circles overhead?
They are turkey vultures—very important, graceful and clean wild residents in our northwest Ohio sky. Find out about these valuable helpers during “Discovery Stories: Turkey Vultures” at the Richard S. “Doc” Phillips Discovery Center at Oakwoods Nature Preserve on Monday, April 2.
Hancock Park District’s Katie Mehlow will read a story and play a game to see if you can smell as well as a vulture.
Children ages three to five with an adult, as well as other aged siblings, are welcome to attend programs at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. “Discovery Stories: Turkey Vultures” is free and registration is not required.
Oakwoods Nature Preserve’s Discovery Center is located at 1400 Oakwoods Lane, off CR 144, west of Findlay.
