Event Description

Bird & Nature Adventures Logo

Snowflakes and Subnivean ~ Join Naturalist Andria Blattner with Friends of Olin Turville (FOOT) on a guided walk to discover the magic of winter at Turville Point.  Learn how snowflakes form and why snow is important to plants and animals over winter.  We will look for signs of subniveans - creatures that dwell beneath the snow!  Enjoy the beautiful trails and views across Lake Monona to downtown Madison.  Dress warm.  We may have a campfire with hot cocoa and smores after the walk. 

Walks at Turville Point held on the 2nd Sunday of every month are co-sponsored by Madison Bird City FUN partners, Madison Parks and Friends of Olin Turville
