HANDS-ON LESSON IN BACK BAY

ILLUSTRATION: Photo

Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge was the scene for a walking tour

and activities for Princess Anne Middle School sixth-graders. The

children visited habitat stations, saw creatures from marshes and

wetlands and used dip nets to get samples of pond life such as

duckweed and bugs. They also learned about loggerhead turtles and

saw hatchlings being released.
