WHAT: Come meet us at the Stephens C. Trombulak Sanctuary in downtown Middlebury, a hidden gem alongside the Otter Creek River. The Sanctuary has a variety of upland and at least 4-5 distinct wetland habitats. These areas will be explored and discussed, with some plant identification (yes, even in the winter), as well as conversation around the animals that use these areas. Over 70 species of birds and 14 species of mammal have been observed here.
Wear outdoor clothing and appropriate footwear for hiking in the woods/wetlands. There may be some icy patches, so crampons/yak traks are also encouraged.
A reminder email with more details will be sent out closer to the event.
