If you love birds, people who love birds, and moms, this is the event for you!

Give Mom a real treat this Mother's Day. Ride with a ranger on our 30-foot pontoon boat and learn the history of how the lake was created and the origin of the state park. Keep a lookout for an abundance of wildlife which makes Smith Mountain Lake its home. Watch to see the ospreys that have returned to the lake from their winter home in the Caribbean.

Mom does everything for you, now it’s your turn to do something for her. Show your mom some love this Mother’s Day weekend by submitting up to two of your mom’s favorite flowers either in honor of, or in memory of, for the museum’s floral display.

Everyone has a different type of bond with their mother, and so do the mothers and children of the animal world.
