"My favorite animal is the harpy eagle because it is one of the most powerful birds in the world. I think it’s really cool how they can raise the feathers on their head to help them hear better when they are hunting."
Aiden loves sitting outside and listening to the sounds of nature. He enjoys walking trails to see if he can spot wildlife, snorkeling to explore sea life, and visiting our local zoo to learn about animals from around the world.
