I must apologize for not posting in so long. Over the summer I had the amazing opportunity to work at CuriOdyssey, at Coyote Point, in San Mateo, CA. I worked there as a camp leader, teaching children about animals, local ecology, photography, and natural science. CuriOdyssey is a museum located in San Mateo, CA, devoted to teaching kids about science, and California ecology. The museum has tons of fun, hands on science exhibits, an outside area exhibiting live, native, California animals, such as, bobcats, Channel Island fox, racoons, yellow billed magpies, roadrunners, California river otters, and much more. Now that my Leadership role is done at CuriOdyssey, I have been fortunate enough to continue playing a role at the museum. I am now a volunteer photographer, and will have some of my photos in their Northern Hall exhibit area, in January 2015. If you are ever in the California Bay Area, CuriOdyssey is a place you should definitely put on your list, as a place to visit. All the animals exhibited at CuriOdyssey are either disabled or have been habituated to humans, therefore cannot be released back into the wild. Pictured above is Trudy. Trudy is a Western Screech Owl (Megascops kennicottii). She was born without a right eye and now lives at CuriOdyssey as an animal ambassador, used to teach kids and adults about her species, and the important role animals play in our eco ystem -- source link
