More creature related Rochester area field trips for groups or families:

There's a farm/horse day coming up for families at Lollipop.

The SPCA downtown and the Mounted Police horse stable, both near Frontier Field do tours/talks. The Mounted Police stable used to take walk-ins. There's also the sheriff's horse barn at Mendon ponds right near the Visitor Center.

Didn't see any info on line, but Mendon and the Helmer Nature Center in Irondequoit used to have guided walks. Mendon used to have fun classes for kids during school breaks and various guided walks. (Wild animal info and tracking crafts and info.)

Letchworth and 1000 Acre Swamp in Penfield also used to do guided walks. Hawk Watch is coming at Braddock Bay. If you can locate a birds of prey silhouette chart before you go, it's helpful. (Identifying a bird by its shape silhouetted against the sky when you look up.)

4-H used to have a day of craft activities at Cooperative Extension a couple times a year on a school holiday. There's also a 4-H Nature Walk in Highland park right behind the Cooperative Extension building.

There's a Geology museum near the Aquarium at Niagara Falls. The Buffalo Zoo has it's own summer camp AND sleep overs, not sure about the Rochester Zoo. The Buffalo museum used to have a nice exhibit of native wild flowers, too.

"Used to." I'm assuming they're still happening but I didn't find any specific info on line. You might have to call and ask.
