On Jan. 25, the Marion Natural History Museum's after school group investigated different adaptations wild animals make to get through the winter months. Lead by Elizabeth Leidhold, kids learn about different types of food sources animals use as well as their caches/larders and how to identify them in the field.

The students also worked on a bird feeder project to bring home.

The next program is Feb. 15 with the Nasketucket Bird Club. To see all of the museum's upcoming programs visit www.marionmuseum.org.
