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.

SUMMARY:Sky Dance of the American Woodcock
DESCRIPTION:When the sun sets in early spring\, woodcock love is in the air. Wet meadows and fields are transformed into a “runway” for their beautiful aerial courtship display.

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.

SUMMARY:Family Self-Guided StoryWalk | Caminata Familiar Autoguiada
DESCRIPTION:Owl Moon by Jane Yolen will be on display for a self-guided adventure from Saturday\, February 12 – Sunday\, February 27 (dawn to dusk) at The Boulders reserve in Pittsfield. \nAs you walk enjoy a story about a father that takes his child on an adventure to go owling for the first time on a cold winter night. Wordlessly the two companions walk along\, for when you go owling you don’t need words. You don’t need anything but hope. Sometimes there isn’t an owl\, but sometimes there is! While the audience of the book is 3-7-year-olds\, the content is great for all ages- even adults! \nThis event is in partnership with the Berkshire Natural Resources Council and the Berkshire Environmental Action Team.   \nClick here to learn more. \nFo questions reach out to Mariah at mauman@bnrc.org \n\nLuna de Búho\, de Jane Yolen\, estará exhibido para una aventura autoguiada desde el sábado 12 de febrero hasta el domingo 27 de febrero (desde el amanecer hasta el atardecer) en la reserva de The Boulders en Pittsfield. \nMientras camina\, disfrute de la historia de un padre que lleva a su hijo a la aventura de ir en busca de búhos por primera vez en una fría noche de invierno. Los dos compañeros caminan sin palabras\, pues cuando se encuentran en busca de búhos palabras no son necesarias. Solo se necesita tener esperanza. A veces no hay búhos alrededor\, pero otras veces sí los hay.  Si bien la audiencia del libro es para niños de 3 a 7 años\, el contenido es ideal para todas las edades\, ¡incluso para adultos! \nEste evento se realiza en colaboración con el Consejo de Recursos Naturales de Berkshire y el Equipo de Acción Ambiental de Berkshire.  \nSi tiene alguna pregunta\, por favor\, comuníquese con Mariah en mauman@bnrc.org. \nClic aquí para saber más.
