We often think of winter as a time when most animals are less active. However, winter marks the beginning of the breeding season for owls! During this time, you are most likely to hear their “hoots” as they defend their territory. We will spend the evening hours bisecting Upper Mill Brook Reservation for owls that winter in the nearby forests.

For much of the 19th century Boston was the hub of the ice export business, shipping ice as far as India. Thoreau writes in Walden of 100 men descending on Walden Pond the winter of 1846-47. Co-sponsored by OAR (Organization for the Assabet River), this talk will give you an in-depth history of the ice trade and ice houses on the Assabet River. SVT/OAR Members: Free
