by Ranger Rudy Montalvo
Sycamore Grove Park is home to many different wildlife. Let’s play a game and try to figure out who some of these critters are!
1. I have feathers and wings, but I don’t always fly. I can swim in the water and say “quack!”
Who am I?
2. I have a fluffy tail and love to climb trees. I search for nuts and sometimes bury them for later.
