THE ECOLOGY OF THE NORTH WOODS -- A CLOSER LOOK AT AUTUMN
In this slide/lecture program, we will take an ecological look at Autumn in the North Woods. Our adventure begins at the summit of Mount Washington, where man has been able to adapt in order to survive some of the most severe weather ever recorded. We'll then descend into the forest and valley below to take a closer look at some of the wildlife that calls New Hampshire home, as well as an overview of the spectacular fall colors. What strategies are adopted to survive the drastic changes in New England's seasons, and how birds, mammals, and plants are shaped by this northern environment will be some of the questions answered. The Mount Washington Valley provides the scenic backdrop as we take this fascinating closer look at Autumn.
Join us for stories, songs and activities every Wednesday!
