Tracks and Traces - Lecture and Field Experience

Description

The forest and fields are full of signs that tell us about the wildlife around us. While some animals like to sleep or even hibernate when it is cold, many will remain active all winter long.

After an introduction to some basic track and trail patterns of our local wildlife, you will have an opportunity to practice your new skills along the trails. Learn to identify the tracks and signs that mammals (and maybe a few birds) leave behind as they move through the land around us.

Checking registration status.
