Though the dregs of winter may still be evident across a barren landscape, many signs of spring are beginning to animate Olana's charming forests, fields and wetlands. Join NYSDEC's Craig Thompson on an outdoor foray to search for bluebirds, robin red-breast, white trillium and other colorful signs that spring has sprung. An educator from Olana will discuss the history of the landscape designed by Frederic Church. Dress for casual trail walking. Binoculars helpful but not necessary. Space is limited, please register by noon on Friday, March 30th by calling (518) 828-1872 x 109. Please note: In the event of inclement weather, the program may be cancelled.
