Tracking and Animal Sign Field Trip @ Lois King Education Center at the Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center

Saturday, March 1 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

  Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center $25

Field trip will start at the Lois King Education Center at the Sax-Zim Bog Welcome Center

Winter offers a lot of opportunities in our area to find and interpret animal sign! Many mammal species are hard to see in the Sax-Zim Bog, but their sign is all around us. This field trip will work to hone your skills finding, interpreting, and documenting animal tracks and sign. Do you need practice determining if you are looking at a dog or wolf track? What is the difference between Black-backed Woodpecker and Pileated Woodpecker sign? This field trip will hope to answer these questions and more while investigating the roadsides and trails around the Welcome Center and beyond. Snowshoes will be helpful during this field trip, but are not required. If you wish to use a pair from the Welcome Center, please email Head Naturalist Clinton at naturalist@saxzim.org to reserve a pair or two! Activity Rating- 2-3. This event is free with a paid membership.
