It is only week two of the Conserve Wildlife Foundation (CWF) Summer Learning Experience program, a part of the Asbury Park School District Summer Camp offerings, and third-grade students have had the opportunity to not only see an osprey up close and personal but to visit a local nest and learn to simulate building the predatory bird’s nesting place.
Sponsored by New Jersey Natural Gas, the 5-week program is a part of the Asbury Park School District’s hands on Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, And Math [STEAAM] focused summer programming.
