Connect With Animals By Recognizing Their Tracks & Sign
All animals leave sign. Spending the morning with Mike learning how to FIND that sign and discover how to identifly what you're seeing. It's a bit like wearing "magic glasses" - you will learn to see things that you never saw before.
Mike says: We will find track and sign in the field and work together to identify them. It will be a relaxed, collaborative experience focusing on learning the skills that will allow participants to identify tracks and sign on their own.
We’ll also discuss tracking field guides, phone apps, websites, and on-line courses for further learning.
