February 2023 – Ranger Ramblings

A highlight of the past month for me was hiking with a group of kids from the Boys and Girls Club to the top of Lookout Point.

The Nature & Wildlife Discovery Center recently partnered with the Pueblo Zoo and the Buell Children’s Museum for nature programming.

We participated in a silent hike, an egg dissection, and an egg experiment (pictured above), which was my favorite activity of the day.

Unfortunately, most insects like moths are specialists, meaning they only eat one type of plant, and lay their eggs on these plants.

Many children enjoy our camps so much that they return year after year, but it’s equally awesome having new campers join in the fun.
