In this first post of our three-part series all about our local PA habitats, we’ll discuss grasslands, an important habitat type that supports our local and global ecology, economy, and community.
Located in the heart of central Pennsylvania, Shaver’s Creek has been connecting people to people and people to place since 1976. We provide educational and recreational opportunities for families, schools, corporate groups, and Penn State students. Come hike a trail, see live animals up close, learn about conservation, and enjoy our programs.
Shaver’s Creek is committed to extending Penn State’s Outreach mission of instruction, service, and research. Through quality programs, we teach, model, and provide the knowledge, values, skills, experiences, and dedication that enable individuals and communities to achieve and maintain harmony between human activities and the natural systems that support all living species.

What a beautiful morning for our first bird walk of the season! And it seems the birds agreed 🐦
Some highlights from Wednesday's walk include an immature chestnut-sided warbler, a flying great blue heron, and a group of brown thrashers demonstrating their “smacking kiss” calls. Not to mention 25 other species, all stunning in their own right!
Don't worry if you couldn't make it - we've got more Migration Mornings coming up each Wednesday at 7:30 a.m.! No prior birding experience required. This is a great opportunity to learn from the pros and be part of a fun and curious community of fellow nature-lovers. 🌱
Head to the link below for more details. Hope to see you there!🦉
