Winter Solstice Walk
Instead of hunkering down and bemoaning the longest night of the year (also known as the winter solstice), celebrate it with a stroll through the Preserve with Education Coordinator Kelly Joslin. We'll celebrate the joys of winter with a walk on the Preserve's trails at a time when the sun is lowest in the sky and we experience the shortest days of the year. We'll conclude in the Visitor Center with hot drinks and cookies. »

The Great Backyard Birdcount
Join Michael O’Shea from Wild Birds Unlimited of Buckingham for a GBBC event at the Preserve. It’s FREE, fun, and easy—and it helps the birds! This annual four-day event (Feb. 15-18) engages bird watchers of all ages in counting birds to create a real-time snapshot of where birds are across the continent. Anyone can participate, from beginning bird watchers to experts. The event takes place at the bird observatory in the Preserve auditorium. Binoculars aren’t necessary, but would be helpful. »
