Nature Education Series
Organization: Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve
Description: The Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve at Saint Vincent College will host a seven-part Nature Education Series beginning December 9 entitled Outside Your Frosty Window that focuses on how wildlife in western Pennsylvania survive the snow and cold of winter.

The series will be led by Ali Klofta, of New Alexandria, a senior majoring in environmental science at Saint Vincent.

Each class in the series will focus on a specific topic including plants (Friday, December 9), mammals (Friday, December 16), reptiles (Friday, January 6), amphibians (Friday, January 13), birds (Friday, January 20), fish (Friday, January 27) and an overview of plants and wildlife (Saturday, February 4). The Friday sessions begin at 12:30 p.m. and the Saturday session begins at 10 a.m.

Pennsylvania’s four distinct seasons and the drastic changes between them are a challenge to wildlife. Animals have to adapt to both 100 degree temperatures during the summer as well as minus 40 degree wind chill temperatures in the winter when all vegetation is frequently buried under snow and ice.

Area residents of all ages are welcome to attend and learn more about wildlife in their backyards.

Admission is free and open to the public but registration is required. Registration forms are available at the Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve Barn.

Location: Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve at SVC, Latrobe

Mr. Smith, an Eagle Scout and sophomore majoring in environmental science from Greensburg, has been camping and Dutch oven cooking for many years. He has planned an excellent array of Dutch oven cuisine including shepherd’s pie and apple dump cake.

The fire will begin early in the morning and the food should be ready for free sampling around noon.

Attendees are advised to bring chairs or blankets. Registration is not required.
