Mass Audubon Nature Festival at Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary - Native Snake Display

I'll be helping out one of my favorite nature educators Richard Wolniewicz, plus I'll have a bunch of native snakes.

The Audubon Nature Festival is a fundraising event for Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary.  
Enjoy ongoing activities throughout the day at Mass Audubon's 21st Annual Audubon Nature Festival. This year's special feature will be live owl presentations by Marcia and Mark Wilson of Eyes On Owls. Come see live owls up close, learn about their natural history, and join in a hooting lesson.

• Face-painting & henna
• Children's games and activities
