SUMMARY:Northwoods Tracking & Trailing
DESCRIPTION:Saturday & Sunday\, February 26 – 27 or March 12 – 13 \nThe western mountains of Maine in winter are stunning. They’re also home to the densest population of Canada lynx in the lower 48 states. Join seasoned wildlife tracker\, educator and Maine Guide\, Dan Gardoqui\, for a small-group (6 max) experience tracking and trailing lynx\, moose\, marten\, fisher and more. \nDan has led groups in this region for over a dozen years and will provide an unforgettable experience. \nOnly a few openings remain! \n  \nRegistration is required. Apply HERE. \n  \nTo learn more\, click here.\nQuestions: email dan@leadwithnature.com.

SUMMARY:Winter Tracking Intensive Series
DESCRIPTION:February 19\, 26 & March 6\, 12 @ 8:30 a.m. — 4:00 p.m. \nJoin Dan Yacobellis with special guest instructor Josh Wood as they co lead this four week series in the Northeast woods. Taken to a variety of habitats spread out through Rensselaer\, Columbia\, and Berkshire counties\, the participants will have the opportunity to see the tracks and sign of most of the mammalian residents of this area written in the snow covered landscape. \nParticipants will come away with a good basic understanding of :\n– Foot Morphology\n– Body movements and locamotion\n– Habitat preferences and uses\n– Life cycles\n– Animal behavior\n– In-depth discussion on animal behavior and natural history and how the animals and their environment shape each other\n– How to combine all of these to interpret the sign we find \nThis course offers something for most skill levels from novice to intermediate. \nTracking is an excellent way to have fun in winter while getting more connected to the natural world! \nCost: $ 400.00 per person (15% discount if you bring a friend)\n10 Person maximun enrollment \nREGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:Hornwort Biology and Systematics
DESCRIPTION:Saturdays\, February 19 & 26\, March 5\, 12\, & 19 @ 1:00 — 3:00 p.m. \nInstructor: Juan Carlos Villarreal Aguilar\nTuition Cost: $175 \nHornworts represent the smallest phylum among land plants\, with only 220 species. Despite the reduced species number\, they have a fascinating biology and hold clues on the evolution of symbiotic interactions and chloroplast evolution. Most of the diversity of hornworts is found in tropical and subtemperate areas from the Americas and Asia (especially India and China). Despite the evolutionary and\, recently\, genomic importance of the group\, the taxonomy remains challenging and little known. \nThis seminar will provide an introduction to the diversity of hornworts\, with focus on the American continents (from Canada to Patagonia) and Europe. We will first identify study the morphology and anatomy of hornworts and discuss last decade studies on morphology\, phylogenetics\, symbiosis\, systematics\, and genomics. Then\, we will focus on the regions of interest\, giving special attention to genera and species present. The participant will be guided through the taxonomical literature available for regional taxa\, and the morphological particularities when using the few available keys. To dive into the hornworts\, we will explore their great variety\, exploring their most common species in different substrates and ecosystems\, including páramos\, montane\, premontane rain forest\, and lowland tropical rain forest. This seminar will use zoom for interactive lectures by way of power point presentations. The seminar will provide a deep knowledge of this fascinating group of plants and discover why they have become important and popular in the field of evolutionary biology! \n• Participants need to have a Zoom account (https://zoom.us ; sign-up is free). They will receive a secure link to join the seminar before it begins. \n• Individual classes will be recorded and made available to stream (not download) for the duration of the seminar by its participants\, so they are able to review them or make up missed ones. \nRegister Here.
