May Rains

(This blog has temporarily been taken over by a summer intern. Please bear with the change in pace)

Welcome to the middle of May where yes, it's raining. Again. In fact, the forecast for the next ten days = more scattered showers and thunderstorms.

But this hasn't deterred the folks at Honey Hollow, nor the awesome school groups who have been visiting daily. This week so far has seen students from 3 different schools, with ages ranging from kindergarten to fifth grade, who partake in educational programs and enjoy the outdoors here in Bucks County.

The weather also hasn't deterred the Canada Geese; one pair of which welcomed a small group of students yesterday with a brand-new nest of goslings. They are located besides Audobon Pond - within relatavely close range of the Visitors Center. Watch out though, the parents are mighty protective of their newborns, so feel free to have a look, but keep a distance.

The rains still provide many opportunities for critter-watching, hiking, and education, which are continuing at Honey Hollow in full force during the end-of-school-year. Looking foward, the next few months should bring even more exciting educational events. But in the meantime, enjoy the week, enjoy the storms, and look for more updates coming soon.
