Franklin Park Community Science Video

This past August the BBC cosponsored a trip to Scarboro Pond in Franklin Park with Zoo New England. We were joined on the walk by journalist Shannon Rose Geary who is a correspondent with the Civic Science Media Lab and news collective. This was Shannon’s first time birding and she is a convert! You can tell how excited she is by watching the YouTube short video she produced.
