So Christmas is fast approaching and one sure sign of that is the Tree Frog Treks Annual Great Cookie Exchange. It will be here at our Frog Hall space on December 15th between 5 and 9pm. Bake some of your favorite cookies, then bring them along to share with others. We will give folks a chance to meet some animals, some staff members and partake of some holiday goodies. Hope to see you there.

This is just a reminder to get out into the beautiful outdoors around us in the Bay Area. These pictures were taken at the beach in Tennessee Valley across the Golden Gate in Marin. It was almost sunset and there was a rain storm blowing in. It looks like we might have snow on the higher elevations this weekend. This would be a nice chance to go out and get some fresh air and experience a sample of a ‘real’ winter.

Dear Mr. Science,
What is the fastest swimming fish?
Jacob, age 7

Hi Jacob,

The fastest swimming fish is the Sailfish. This fish can swim at speeds of close to 60mph. They are extremely fast because of their fin shapes and their long pointy bill.

Keep those questions coming!
Cheers,
Mr. Science (aka Chris Giorni)
