Edison Kids Visit the Preserve

Friday March 16 was a perfect day for these students to take a field trip to Panorama Vista Preserve. Education Outreach Director Kathi Parks saw to it that stations were set up and manned so that students could learn about birds, spiders, planting trees, and art.

These overlapping honeycombs are located 15 feet or so out in the open up an old tree snag. With cooler weather the bees are moving more slowly but are still buzzing in and out. (Photo by Andy Honig)

Western Bluebirds

A flock of Western Bluebirds, 30-40 of them, have been spotted on the Preserve. They are distinctive with their rusty red breasts and, of course, bright blue feathers. No one we have talked to so far remembers bluebirds in this area (although in February a much smaller group of Mountain Bluebirds briefly visited; the weather at the time was very cold.)
