Arlington TV has started a “At The Nature” program to provide a condensed version of some of the activity of the Arlington County Nature Center Program.
Living in a county that’s 90% developed sometimes we forget that where we live was once wilderness with a few farms. But when we see the wildlife here – we’re reminded. Maybe they will do an episode on the red fox here in South Arlington.
They have many events scheduled for the spring. So shake off the winter and get out and enjoy the soon-to-be warmer weather! The trees are budding so the Cherry Blossoms aren’t far away.
Mary, It is bad enough having squirrel’s in my back yard that run all over the place up and down trees, I couldn’t imagine them flying around as well. However, it is great that the community can learn about local inhabitants of our world, other than humans. Looks like the Arlington Nature Center has similar programs to our Chattanooga Zoo. Keep up the great work. David
Mary - I’ll stick with our lizards here
Just wanted to stop by and say “Hi” 
I am going to have to spend more time in Arlington! Flying squirrles? It does seem that you have more trees in Arlington than we do in Ashburn. Our builders like to cut them all down and bless us with a few sprouts.
Great headline! I love a nice batman reference and if throw in a squirrel I am hooked…:)

Mary,
WoW! Flying squirrel. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one before. It might be a little frightening to see one for the first time in flight.
Thank you for the education. I enjoyed watching them fly.
