SUMMARY:Postponed! OCCA Lecture: Japanese Knotweed
DESCRIPTION:This event is postponed due to speaker illness. \nJapanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) is a common invasive riparian plant seen in the Catskills. It can shade out other streamside plants and establish monocultures\, lower water quality\, and even damage infrastructure. Management of this plant can be tricky\, but it is doable! Join CRISP Terrestrial Invasive Species Manager Dan Snider-Nerp to learn about current best management practices for Japanese knotweed and its closest relatives\, as well as experimental management methods\, and the future of sustainable management for this species in the Catskills.” \nThis program will take place in the Community Room of the Clark Sports Center at 7 pm on Wednesday\, April 9. Please sign up at occainfo.org

SUMMARY:Woodcock Courtship Dance at Parslow Road
DESCRIPTION:Join Otsego Land Trust and Delaware-Otsego Audubon Society for our annual Woodcock Walk at the Parslow Road Conservation Area.  DOAS locals Sandy Bright and Charlie Scheim will lead a walk to observe the spring courtship ritual of the woodcock. \nPlease sign up at https://otsegolandtrust.org/events/woodcock-courtship-dance \nThe woodcock usually spends its time hidden on the forest floor probing for earthworms in moist soil\, but on spring evenings males perform a dance in scrub fields to attract potential mates. This wonderful display occurs in three parts: the strut\, the launch skyward\, and the spiral back to earth accompanied by buzzy calls and twittering wing sounds.
