A Wildlife Search at FLCA
May 3 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join wildlife ecologist and author of “America is Wild!” Brad Timm as we take a leisurely stroll looking and listening for a wide diversity of animals that live in the Fitzgerald Lake Conservation Area. We’ll look under logs for salamanders and other critters, keep our ears and eyes peeled for birds all around us, keep an eye out for evidence of different mammals (e.g., tracks, feeding evidence, scat, etc.), and much more! And we’ll learn fun facts about many of these animals we come across. All ages are welcome and encouraged to join! Copies of “America is Wild!” will be available for purchase ($20), and Brad is more than happy to sign them as well.
