SUMMARY:Annual Nesting Bird Census - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:This event is cancelled. Please join us for a future event! \nGrab binoculars and join us in counting birds at Mariton. Since 1981\, staff and volunteers have conducted an annual nesting bird census to count the number of species and individual birds breeding at this 200-acre preserve. \nThe census results serve as an important tool to help assess habitat management strategies. Healthy habitats sustain various nesting species\, including flycatchers\, tanagers\, thrushes\, and warblers. Mariton’s woodlands are particularly important to birds like the Wood Thrush\, which requires large forests for nesting.

SUMMARY:Fungi Foray with Philly Myco Club
DESCRIPTION:Join Philadelphia Mycology Club’s Kevin Popowich for a Fungi Foray along the trails of Mariton Wildlife Sanctuary to discover and uncover the wonderful world of mycology. Together\, we’ll explore the steep slopes of Bougher Hill overlooking the scenic Delaware River and see what mushrooms and other fungi we can find.    \nWhat is a foray? Different than foraging\, which is the pursuit of only edible species\, forays are a survey of the mushroom diversity in an ecological landscape. We will adhere to Natural Lands’ Leave No Trace policy and not remove any mushrooms or other plant material from the preserve.  \nBefore we start hunting for mushrooms\, we’ll congregate for a brief introduction with an informational handout. This program will cover identification\, safety\, look-alikes\, and resources to help you continue your fungal adventures.   \nAbout our partner: A Philadelphia-based nonprofit\, Philadelphia Mycology Club’s mission is to study\, collect\, and document fungi; to foster accessibility\, diversity\, and inclusivity through educating the community on fungi; and to steward the land and advocate for fungal conservation. They work with other environmental groups in and around Philadelphia to provide free and accessible mushroom guidance in an urban setting and to work towards common goals of environmental justice.
