LHAS’ Nature Explorers aim to introduce young people and their families to the wonders of nature, including birds, wildlife, and their habitats.
Regular outings and hikes are offered at our three sanctuaries, and at local nature preserves.
Outings are led by knowledgeable naturalists. All activities are open to the public and free of charge.
