SUMMARY:Vernal Pool Exploration @ Hall's Lake Natural Area
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Friday\, May 8th\, at 4:00 pm to explore the fascinating world of vernal pools as we celebrate Amphibian Week!\n\nVernal pools are seasonal wetlands that typically fill with snow melt and spring rains but dry out during the summer months. Because of the ephemeral nature of these pools\, fish are unable to survive in them. This provides the perfect nursery habitat for many amphibians and invertebrates.\n\nRubber boots are recommended. A boot disinfection station will be provided.\n\n\nDirections to the preserve: http://bit.ly/Halls-Lake-Natural-Area\nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn

SUMMARY:Forest Bathing at Audubon Woods Preserve
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a mindfulness hike as we experience the forest in a unique way through the act of “forest bathing.” This term comes from the Japanese practice\, shinrin-yoku\, the act of immersing yourself in the atmosphere of the forest and using all of your senses to deepen the experience. We will meander the property at an easy pace to fully take in our surroundings. Minimal talking is encouraged during the walk\, with time for discussion and reflection after. \nDirections to the preserve: http://bit.ly/AudubonWoodsPreserve \nShareEmailTwitterFacebookRedditTumblrPinterestLinkedIn
