This will be an experiential day of learning to interpret the stories of the living landscape. From birds returning, frogs calling and breeding, and mammals feeding on rich spring growth (and each other), to wild edibles along the river bank and the history of the land written in tree species and growth, we will endeavor to put together the puzzle pieces that show us how the wild communities around us function and abound at this special time of year. Emphasis will be placed on respect, connection, interpretation of track and sign, and productive times, places, and methods by which to see and experience more of what is happening around us. This class will take place in the diverse landscapes of the Kickapoo Valley Reserve. Please be prepared for a full day off and away!
