Mr. Owl

Keeper of the Nature Guide

Mr. Owl loves books, his glasses and his bow tie.

He keeps the Nature Guide and hands out stamps when you learn something new about the woods.

Nature fact: Owls can turn their heads much farther than people can.

River Otter

Fishing friend

This playful otter swims the river looking for fish.

Help catch as many as you can before time runs out!

Nature fact: Otters sometimes hold paws while they float so they don’t drift apart.

Flying Squirrel

Glide & Gather pilot

This little glider leaps from branch to branch and catches the breeze.

Steer through the air to gather acorns along the way.

Nature fact: Flying squirrels don’t really fly. They glide on stretchy skin between their legs.

Raccoon

Bramble Trail explorer

This curious raccoon runs, jumps and climbs through Acorn Woods.

Gather acorns and fix the broken bridge to finish the trail.

Nature fact: Raccoons have very sensitive front paws for feeling around.
