Virtual Field Trip: Tracks in the snow

It snowed at Milner Gardens & Woodland, prompting Pam, the Shoots with Roots educational program coordinator, to embark on one of her favourite winter activities – looking for tracks in the snow. Join Pam as she explores the tracks and signs left behind by wildlife throughout the garden. Meet a deer and help figure out mystery tracks left by an animal that slides on its belly!
