Our region is full of wildlife, yet most of the time it’s difficult to see where the animals are or what they’re doing. This changes in the winter when evidence of animals that hop, stalk, or waddle becomes easier to see and interpret. Even without much snow, wildlife often leave signs of their presence. In the past, we’ve seen signs of beaver, coyote, fisher, fox, otter, porcupine, and rabbit.

Join us on Saturday, February 11 from 10 am to noon for an outing of winter wildlife tracking at Marble Brook in Northampton with expert naturalist John Body. You’ll learn how to identify the tracks of a variety of animals based on their size, shape, and traveling style, and learn how they interact with the winter world.

Depending on the amount and depth of snow, snowshoes could be helpful.

Space is limited to 20 participants and registration is required.

Heavy snow or rain cancels.
