About this event

  • 3 hours 30 minutes

The Earthwise Aware's naturalist team land use and climate impact on ecological communities at risk in a fast-changing world. This is an orientation field session that introduces the science program and team. You will help the team record bird movement, observe seasonal phases of fauna and flora, monitor bio-pollution, and map habitat fragmentation factors. It's also a chance to learn new skills and join the team & the effort ツ

⚠ IMPORTANT: PLEASE DO NOT BE A NO-SHOW!!! Our free offerings are frequently waitlisted, so if you cannot attend, please tell us a few days before the events so we can give your spot to another person who wants to participate. Thanks for your understanding and courtesy!

Why limit the number of attendees? EwA caps the attendance size of its events so that they remain low-impact and ethical for the wildlife and habitats we document.

Age: Adults (16+) / Rendezvous: Long Pond Parking Lot.

◇ What to Wear & Bring: Although these will be slow-paced hikes, please dress appropriately and consider wearing long pants (for the possibility of ticks, poison ivy, etc.) and sturdy hiking shoes. Bring water. Also, know that there is no bathroom in the forest.
