Join a ranger in this hands-on program as we use our detective skills to figure out the secret to flying. We will discuss their unique physical adaptations that give them the ability to fly in the sky and how we have tried to copy this skill for our own needs. If the weather allows we will then explore the park for some of the sky-flyers that call the park their home.
