Event Overview:

See Morse Wildlife Preserve waking up from its wintry slumber as we explore prairie, wetland and upland forest trails. Licia Sahagun and Ryan Johnson of Firecraft NW are naturalists and educators who will unveil hidden inhabitants of this beautiful landscape. We’ll listen and attempt to identify the many birds that have recently migrated from California to Mexico. Along the way we’ll look for animal tracks and tune-in to the wild dramas that play out here every day. It’s time to get excited about the new season of Forterra Nature Discovery™.
