Description

What do white oaks, cottontail rabbits, craneflies, common dandelions, and gray squirrels have in common? Come learn about the fascinating world of white oaks and the natural communities they sustain at Fresh Pond. In this workshop, we’ll go over winter tree identification with a focus on trees found at Fresh Pond Reservation, as well as explore the numerous (and largely secret) relationships between trees, mammals, birds, insects, et cetera. Enrich your pond-side strolls with new insights into the Reservation’s ecosystems. Bring your smartphone, tablet, or laptop all charged up for a group exploration with Ranger Jean. Register for meeting place with fpr@cambridgema.gov.
