Thursday Nights at Moose Hill: This Fall is a Time for Learning!

Nature’s Options at Mass Audubon’s Moose Hill

Thursday Night Series

Thursday, November 2 - Tracking Basics The animals in the environment around us are constantly leaving traces of their passing. Learning to read the traces on the land is a fun and informative skill.

Thursday November 9th - Exploring Nature at Night

Being outdoors at night can be a rewarding experience. In this talk we will explore the nocturnal world and what wakes up as we go to bed. What animals spend their nights out and about? We will also explore ways that you can learn more about the evening sky and the changing constellations. Program runs for 6:30 pm to 8:00pm, is suitable for children 6 and up, Members Adults $10, child $5, Nonmember Adult $15, child $5.

Thursday November 16 - Bird Language Basics

Understanding the language of birds – what they are telling each other and what they are telling us – will enrich your life in practical & surprising ways. Birds and animals use a common language. Their calls and alarms help them communicate important information to each other. We can learn to understand this language. In fact, we are “hard wired” to learn this, as countless generations of our ancestors depended on this ancient skill to survive, around the world. Don't worry, you do not need to know a single bird call. Learning the language of the birds is fun, and provides you with a tool to connect with nature in a personal way. Program is for 6:00pm to 8:00pm, Members Adults $10, child $5, Nonmembers Adult $15, child $5.
