SUMMARY:An Evening Chat with Bats
DESCRIPTION:Join Seasonal Educator Toni on a nighttime walk with bats to observe them\, listen to their calls\, and appreciate the roles they perform!\n\n\nBats are often misunderstood as pests or carrying diseases\, but despite their scary reputation they serve important roles such as pollinators or insect predators. Here at Duke Farms\, we can observe bats in the wild—and even get to listen to their calls! This nighttime walk will showcase some local bat species seen on campus\, as well as how they communicate with echolocation using bioacoustics technology. \n  \nWe will be meeting first behind the Farm Barn Orientation Center before departing for our program! This class involves traveling less than 1 mile on mixed (paved and unpaved) surfaces\, with participants moving for the entire duration. Most program routes can be adapted to accommodate mobility needs. \n  \n(Photo Credit: Maximilian Ruther\, 2019) \n\n\nProgram Guidelines\nDid you know members receive 10% off all programs?

SUMMARY:Taking a Look at Trees
DESCRIPTION:Join Seasonal Educator Toni for an introductory tree ID walk that showcases their diversity and importance in nature!\n\n\nAs constant yet vital features of our landscapes\, trees can be easy to take for granted compared to fleeting wildflowers or chance wildlife sightings. Many types of trees literally build and define the habitat wildlife (and humans) depend on\, each doing so with their own unique lifestyles and appearances. Join us on an introductory guided walk to learn their defining traits\, appreciate their amazing diversity\, and explore the roles they perform for our ecosystems. In turn\, we will also reflect on Duke Farms’s land use history and restoration efforts that have brought back our campus’s forests. \nWe will be meeting first behind the Farm Barn Orientation Center before departing for our program! \n(Photo Credit: Sara DiVito\, 2024) \n\n\nProgram Guidelines\nDid you know members receive 10% off all programs?

SUMMARY:Resident Birds of Winter
DESCRIPTION:Join Seasonal Educator Toni on a winter birdwatching walk to see which birds can be found in the colder months!\n\n\nWhen winter rolls in\, we expect to see less wildlife as they seek shelter or hibernate through the cold.

We will also be logging our observations onto eBird\, a community science tool that keeps track of when and how often different species appear.
