We had such a fun week at Eagle Camp this year. We learned a lot about herbivores, omnivores, carnivores and the food chain. We hope to do it again next year!

We did one final swim at our favorite beach and had fun tackling our helper, Nick.

The long hike around the rim of the kettle required a bit of rest and observation of the beautiful prairie.

In the afternoon, we went to Kettle Hole to see what new things opened up to us after a week spent learning at Eagle Camp.

After webbing, we started to tkae out animals (to represent extinction) and saw how well, or not well, the web held up.

To fully understand the importance of each and every animals we saw and learned about from the herbivores to the carnivores, we made a food web where each of us represented a plant or animal.

And the Eagles were waiting to see us! Here the two young eagles were seen waiting for their parents to deliver them lunch. As noted by their brown heads, these eagles have yet to fledge. As the mature, their heads turn from brown to the characteristic white of a bald eagle.
