Wildlife in Winter Walk at Williams Park

White-throated Sparrow

Saturday, February 13 
10am to noon

New England woods in winter can be serenely quiet, but wildlife is still surprisingly active. Forest birds are among the most obvious, bring your binoculars! Many mammals can be detected by tracks they leave in mud and snow as well as other signs. Conservation biologist Jim Arrigoni will explain strategies that different critters depend on to survive the months of cold and scarce food, as well as point out signs of wildlife encountered along the ~1.5-mile gentle walk. Be sure to dress appropriately for the weather, including footwear for snow or mud.
