Autumn is upon us and the great bird and monarch butterfly migrations are in full wing, but most living things in our local forests and wetlands stay right here in Newton throughout the winter months. Join a Newton Conservators outing in Webster Woods and learn how salamanders and other local amphibians plus turtles, butterflies, tiny kinglet birds, bees, wasps, and many other creatures prepare for and survive a New England winter.
Tour leader is Eric Olson, a senior lecturer at Brandeis University, who has a PhD in evolutionary biology and ecology.
