You are invited to join wildlife biologists and foresters as they explore trails at the Highland Farm Preserve, in York Maine. The York Land Trust has dramatically improved wildlife habitat at the Preserve through simple land management methods. Find out how you can too! Learn how shrubby, wooded areas give many small mammals, birds and other wildlife species safe places to hide, eat, nest, and raise their young. Attendees will also encounter many signs of wildlife like scat and tracks, and learn to identify habitat types. This workshop has been approved for 2.0 Category 1 Continuing Education Credits for licensed foresters.
