Mommy & Me

The Romance of NatureWhat do doves, wolves, termites, bald eagles and a few humans all have in common?  They only have one mate for their whole life.  Who knew a termite could be so romantic?!  I think the human species could take a few pointers from nature.

This Valentine's Day, I'm not going to be celebrating romance (sorry Carl), but I will be celebrating the love I have for my family. With that said, why not try something fun and informative as a family on the ‘day of love'.  The Eagle Institute in Lackawaxen will be holding a Valentine's Guided Eagle Excursion on Saturday, February 13.  Enjoy a day out at various eagle viewing sites, as you learn about the majestic bald eagle.  If Valentine's weekend is out of the question, don't worry, the Eagle Institute will be holding another excursion on February 20.  For more information, call the Eagle Institute at 570-685-5960 or visit them online.

Hmmmmm... I wonder what an eagle gives their mate for Valentine's Day.  I highly doubt it's a box of Godiva and bottle of Chardonnay.  Regardless, the fact that certain creatures have one mate for their whole life is much more romantic than a box of Godiva any day.  Be sure to get out and experience the romance of nature.  Until next time...celebrate family, friends and traditions.
