As we walked the trails at the Prairie Ridge Ecostation we could see evidence that real studies were going on. Here is a green building used as classroom space.
A night camera poised to take pictures of wildlife that wanders by.
A camera box for watching bird nestlings.
And these strange contraptions. There were several placed on the forest floor. The note on them said they were part of a study. I can't imagine what.
The building would certainly come in handy with field trips. One of the bloggers I follow has trail cams set up on their land, and the devices regularly capture bears, coyotes, raccoon, deer, and other critters, especially at night.
