Ponds Alive!

Come to LHS for some close encounters with creatures that live in ponds. Fish, frogs, turtles, salamanders, and crayfish are just some of the animals you'll meet and investigate in this workshop. Using nets, explore our outdoor pond where smaller forms of life, such as dragonfly nymphs, snails, and water boatmen, make their home.
