Orca Recovery Day: South Prairie Creek Preserve
Saturday, October 14, 2023
Come join us for Orca Recovery Day on Saturday, October 14th, 2023! We'll be planting trees along the creek to improve salmon habitat; the primary food source for orca whales. We'll also be hosting a bird walk with an expert birder, and will be offering some youth activities.
