Snoods, wattles, and beards, oh my! Get in the Thanksgiving spirit and join us at the Kensington Nature Center for an exciting look into the lives of Wild Turkeys! We’ll take a deep dive into turkey adaptations and behavior, play some Turkey Trivia, and end the program with a short hike.

This program starts indoors, ends outside. The outdoor time, approximately 20 minutes, will be spent on a leisurely walk with frequent stops. Expect to walk about .5 miles. The event will conclude at the Nature Center. The planned path is dirt and gravel, mostly flat and level. No prior experience is necessary. For maximum enjoyment, some of the time will require all participants to patiently remain quiet and listen closely.
