Holly and Lucky in the pond - 6/21/15The crunch to open the Ecology Hall isn’t leaving much time for anything else. The good news is that we had two reports of Lily and her 3 cubs visiting community feeding stations to the delight of the landowners.
At the Bear Center, 3 crews plus staff were working much of the day on the Ecology Hall. At opening, the Hall will look awesome (the word we most often hear) but will be far from complete. There is so much to add on so many topics. The next months and years will see continuous change—partly as we complete exhibits long planned and partly as we see what is of interest to visitors. There is only so much space and it is filling up fast. Thanks to help from so many technical experts and so many Lily Fans, it is better than any of us imagined.
On Sunday, June 21, Lucky and Holly cooled off in the pond. Here are some videos of them from that day.
