Join Tina Solovieri from High Park Nature Centre and Carolynne, Co-founder of Turtle Protectors to learn and connect with the Beings in High Park at night.
When taking a walk in the park at this time of year, just superficially glancing into the bare woods, over the still, cold water and the empty mown lawns, the park could seem lifeless to some. – The migrating birds have left. Reptiles, amphibians, insects and some bats have disappeared into their long winter sleep. Plants, shrubs and broadleaf trees have gone dormant. But really - the park is anything but lifeless!
On this walk we want to sense, imagine and admire some of our High Park winter animal relatives. Some of them skillfully use the darkness, even in winter, to find food, to travel and to be out and about in the quiet. We will chat about turtles in brumation, owls, beavers, rabbits, coyotes, foxes and more.
