Trivia

​Learn

Did you know: Marshall Fredericks was a Danish Consulate representative. A consul is an official representative of the government of one state in the territory of another, normally acting to assist and protect the citizens of the consul's own country, and to facilitate trade and friendship between the people of the two countries.

​Think

Swans are migratory birds.  They fly north in the spring and summer and south in the fall and winter.  They can fly up to 4000 miles from their spring/summer location to their fall/winter location.  Why do you think swans and many birds do this each year?
