West Creek Reservation Field Trip Spring 2008
Year of the Frog
Tim taught the students about the importance of the health of amphibian population to our environment. The Nature Club students helped Tim as he was able to successfully catch several frogs in the wetlands in the West Creek Reservation. Tim demonstrated to the students how to swab the frog's skin and place it in a vial that would be sent to a lab to be tested for the Chytrid disease. View more Year of the Frog information
Bird Watching Hike
The Nature Club students enjoyed a hike with the Metropark Naturalist to identify many of the birds that reside in the park.
Water Testing The students used water testing strips to determine the health of the water in the reservation. The students determined that the water quality in the West Creek Reservation is good.
