    Above, On, and Below: 
Life in the Bald Cypress swamp Is all about water.
Above the water, birds and dragonflies perch on
cypress "knees," looking out for food. 

On the water's surface, a frog paddles by as dragonflies rest on the floating lily pads.
Below the water, fish swim among aquatic plants
and a crayfish scuttles along the muddy bottom.

What do you notice about how life is connected
above, on, and below the water?

This exhibit in our Regional Journey Gallery was inspired by our Delaware’s Bald Cypress swamps, designed by exhibit designers @reichandpetch and fabricated by @kubikmaltbie

    Meet Holly, our Russian Tortoise. Twice a day, we introduce our friends to one of our live animal ambassadors. By meeting the animals in a safe environment, our human friends learn how to treat our animal friends. For the animals that can be touched, we demonstrate how to use two fingers and to be gentle. Here, Holly had the opportunity to explore outside too!

    iPhone Memories can be weird sometimes. 
This one came up as food related - but nothing is actually edible (except the bearded dragon's lunch!)
