SUMMARY:Observing Glacial Erratics Along the Ronkonkoma Moraine
DESCRIPTION:The geologic event that most affected the land surface of Long Island was the advance of a massive continental glacier into this region during the Wisconsin stage of the Pleistocene Epoch. The southernmost Ronkonkoma moraine and the later-formed Harbor Hill moraine to the north are two sub-stages\, or positions\, of the ice sheet which occurred on Long Island. (https://www.garviespointmuseum.com/) \nThis walk with Frank will give you an up-close view of glacial erratics–often the size of boulders–deposited as the glacier melted and retreated. \nWalk Leader: Frank Quevedo\, SOFO Executive Director \nThis program is for adults and teens. \nFor non-members\, there is a $15 fee per person for this program. This program fee will also provide non-members with free admission to the museum on a day of their choice. Members are free. Advanced reservations are required for all events. \n  \n Sign Up Here!\n

SUMMARY:Alewife Trail Walk (1/2 mile) with Peconic Baykeeper Peter Topping
DESCRIPTION:Streams and rivers along the East Coast once “ran silver” every spring as alewives and other diadromous fish made their annual spawning migrations from saltwater to freshwater. Join Peconic Baykeeper Peter Topping for a 1/2 mile walk as we search for alewives in Southampton’s Alewife Creek. Along the way\, we will learn about the history of these threatened and ecologically important fish as well as the efforts being made to protect their future on Long Island. This will also be a great opportunity to see osprey\, herons\, and egrets so bring binoculars! Ticks may be present\, dress accordingly. Limited enrollment. \nWalk Leader: Peter Topping\, Peconic Baykeeper \nThis FREE program is for adults\, teens\, and children ages 5+. Advanced reservations are required for all events. \nPhoto credit: Byron Young \n  \n Sign Up Here!\n

SUMMARY:Searching for Woodcocks
DESCRIPTION:The American Woodcock is well-camouflaged with brown dappled leaf tones\, and its foraging behavior keeps the bird’s movements close to the ground\, making it hard to spot during the daytime. But at dawn and again at dusk during late winter and early spring\, these birds really put on a show. Join SOFO for a short walk through the field and forest of Poxabogue County Park at dusk. As darkness falls\, we will listen for the American Woodcock male’s “peent” call and watch for his aerial acrobatics as he tries to woo a female. This program has limited enrollment. \nWalk Leader: Melanie Meade\, SOFO Education Director \nThis program is for adults\, teens\, and children ages 10+. \nFor non-members\, there is a $15 fee for adults and a $10 fee for children for this program. This program fee will also provide non-members with free admission to the museum on a day of their choice. Members are free. Advanced reservations are required for all events. \n  \n Sign Up Here!\n
