SUMMARY:Discovering Forested Wetlands with Carli Leroux from Nature Trust NB
DESCRIPTION:Forested wetlands are more than just swamps. These habitats are often hidden within our forests\, but contain rich biodiversity and provide valuable ecosystem services. Join us as we welcome guest speaker Carli Leroux from Nature Trust NB to learn how to recognize forested wetlands\, what makes them special\, and why these often overlooked habitats are worth protecting.

SUMMARY:Geology Talk and Tour with Don MacPhail
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to have Don MacPhail return as a leader for a geology talk and tour along the Kennebecasis Valley. We’ll visit five sites along the way and have an easy to understand\, introductory lesson on the unique formations in our own area. \nThe limestone cliffs at the starting point are the oldest rocks – the oldest anything – in New Brunswick. Three further stops along the Kennebecasis Valley and a final stop on the Kingston Peninsula showcase the three main rock types that we were supposed to learn in school; igneous\, sedimentary and metamorphic. The rocks are pretty different when you really look at them and they were each formed in very different times in the Earth’s past. We will talk about what living things were on the planet during each of the geological eras and try to picture the situations that the rocks\, as we have learned to read them\, have told us about those times in the planet’s history.We will see an ancient carbon capture project\, the remains of a fast-flowing river system at the base of an ancient mountain range and a solidified pile of volcanic ash. As well\, we will see evidence of the “recent” Ice Age. And discus how rocks are dated. \nRecommended age: All ages \nMobility and accessibility: Easy with almost no walking. Parking is secure\, but traffic awareness is important especially for children who attend. \nThis event is for Nature Saint John members only. Become a member today!

SUMMARY:Deer Island Birding with Paul Mansz
DESCRIPTION:A fall day on Deer Island can run the gamut from fairly quiet to quite exciting – we never know what this trip will bring us!A number of sea birds can be seen from the ferry\, and once on the island we will be looking for lingering migrants as well as newly arrived wintering birds. We will check a number of overlooks of fresh and salt water\, enjoy a picnic lunch\, and possibly visit the lighthouse at Green’s Point. \nRecommended Age Group:\n12+ (younger participants welcome with an accompanying adult) \nMobility and Accessibility:\n2-3 hours of light walking with frequent pauses\, across 3-4 stops combined\, and an hour milling about the campground at lunch. No steep hills but terrain can be uneven in places where we step off the road. \n  \nThis event is for Nature Saint John members only. Become a member today!
