Wildlife Habitats at FLCA with Brad Timm
May 7, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Fitzgerald Lake Conservation Area has a wide diversity of habitats which are used by the hundreds of wildlife species present at FLCA. Wetlands of a variety of types, forests, and early-successional patches are just some examples, and wildlife habitat can even be defined at a much finer-scale such as decaying logs on the forest floor for use by salamanders. Some wildlife species even create habitat for themselves and for other species. Take a walk in the woods with wildlife biologist Brad Timm to learn about this diversity, while we also look for the wildlife that inhabit these areas and how we can identify their use of these habitats. All ages are welcome and encouraged!
BBC will not be limiting attendance, but we ask that you register for each walk beforehand. This will allow us to answer any questions you might have and notify you of any changes or cancellations.
To sign up for any of the following walks, please send an email to Dave Pritchard at Registrar.BroadBrookCoalition@gmail.com. For more information on this program call Dave Pritchard (413-268-3668) or Dick Wynne (413-584-7930).
