Saturday, February 11th,<br>9:00-1:00<br><br>Join Dan Yacobellis Naturalist Extraordinaire on an outing to find and<br>learn about animal tracks and behavior in Hopkins Forest. Even during the<br>coldest period of the year, the woods are alive with animals such as<br>cottontails, voles, raccoons, weasels, foxes, bobcats, and coyotes -- which<br>are out and about looking for food and shelter to get them through the<br>season. The program will begin with a short indoor introduction before<br>heading outside to find and follow tracks. Given the cold conditions, and<br>that tracking is a slow moving activity, participants should come prepared<br>with warm clothing, including a good coat, layers, hat and gloves and warm,<br>sturdy footwear. A shuttle will leave from Paresky at 9:00am and return<br>at 1:00pm.
