Winter Wildlife Tracking with Dan Gardoqui

The winter landscape is a fabulous time to connect with the lives of our local wildlife. Mammals, birds (even winter insects) leave behind tracks, trails and signs of their presence. Spend the morning with certified wildlife tracker Dan Gardoqui of White Pine Programs, learning to interpret the abundant clues of our wild neighbors. Participants should be dressed to be outdoors for the entire 3 hours - regardless of temperature. Dress in layers. Bring snacks and a drink. Program runs regardless of snow cover. For adults & interested teens. Group size is limited to 12 people.

This program is sponsored by York County Audubon. Sunday, January 21 is the snow date for the program, in the event of inclement weather on January 20.

Note: This same workshop will also be presented on Sunday, February 25th, sponsored by the Wells Reserve.
