Description
Meet under the porch at the Mary Gibbs Mississippi Headwaters Center
Listen for the bugling of returning Trumpeter swans. Look for swelling of tree buds. The earth is awakening from its winter sleep. Join the park naturalist as we walk around the Mississippi Headwaters area looking at nature's signs that spring is returning. Don't forget to bring your binoculars.
Spring conditions can be snowy, slushy, or muddy. We will hike in our boots. Dress warmly and come prepared for the weather conditions.
