Winter Solstice Walk on the Anderson Easement
Saturday, December 21 • 3–5 pm Strafford Road, Strafford Will third time be the charm for a Bear-Paw solstice celebration? Poor weather canceled two previous tries, but with luck we’ll walk the forest access trails on this 33-acre easement and finish with hot cider and hot dogs at a big bonfire if there is snow, or small patio flame if not. Bear-Paw Annual Meeting with Sandra Houghton Saturday, January 25 • 9 am–3:30 pm Hooksett Public Library, Hooksett Sandra Houghton,Wildlife Diversity Biologist, will be the keynote speaker, sharing her presentation, Bat Conservation in New Hampshire. Due to white-nose syndrome, habitat loss, and other threats, all of New Hampshire’s bat species are listed as Endangered, Threatened, or Species of Special Concern.

Come to our annual meeting to learn about the ecology of New Hampshire bats, and what you can do to help local bats. Winter Wildlife Sign Search Saturday, February 22 • 10 am–12 noon Lindsay-Flanders Town Forest Easement, Deerfield Join natural resource specialist Frank Mitchell on this property across from the Deerfield Town Hall as he helps us see tracks and other wildlife signs it could be easy to miss.
