February 19, 26 & March 6, 12 @ 8:30 a.m. — 4:00 p.m.
Join Dan Yacobellis with special guest instructor Josh Wood as they co lead this four week series in the Northeast woods. Taken to a variety of habitats spread out through Rensselaer, Columbia, and Berkshire counties, the participants will have the opportunity to see the tracks and sign of most of the mammalian residents of this area written in the snow covered landscape.
Participants will come away with a good basic understanding of :
– Foot Morphology
– Body movements and locamotion
– Habitat preferences and uses
– Life cycles
– Animal behavior
– In-depth discussion on animal behavior and natural history and how the animals and their environment shape each other
– How to combine all of these to interpret the sign we find
This course offers something for most skill levels from novice to intermediate.
Tracking is an excellent way to have fun in winter while getting more connected to the natural world!
