SUMMARY:Get the Kids Out: Emmons Pond Bog
DESCRIPTION:Join OCCA for a spring nature walk at Emmons Pond Bog\, one of Otsego County’s most unique natural areas. Shake off the cabin fever and get the kids outside during school break for a fresh-air adventure! Together\, we’ll explore the bog trail as the landscape wakes from winter\, searching for early signs of spring—including migrating birds\, emerging amphibians\, and the delicate blooms of spring ephemerals on the forest floor. \nAlong the trail\, we’ll pause often to observe and ask questions about how plants and animals respond to the return of warmth and light. Participants will learn simple techniques for spotting and identifying early wildflowers\, noticing patterns in plant growth\, and exploring how bog ecosystems differ from surrounding forests. \nThe trail tends to be muddy this time of year so please wear appropriate footwear. \n  \nMore info/sign up: https://www.occainfo.org/calendar/homeschool-nature-walk-emmons-pond-bog-1

SUMMARY:Out in Nature: Emmons Pond Bog
DESCRIPTION:Join the Otsego County Conservation Association (OCCA)\, the SUNY Oneonta Counseling Center\, OPA\, and the SUNY Oneonta Gender and Sexuality Resource Center for a peaceful and welcoming “Out in Nature” spring walk at Emmons Pond Bog. \nThis guided hike will explore the unique trails of this remarkable wetland ecosystem as we look for the first blooms of the season\, listen for blackbirds and frogs\, and observe other signs of spring awakening. Along the way\, participants will learn basic flower and tree identification while enjoying the calming benefits of time spent outdoors in community. \nEmmons Pond Bog offers a striking landscape shaped over 11\,000 years ago as glaciers retreated\, leaving behind a water-filled depression that evolved into the bog we see today. From the trail\, visitors can take in its quiet beauty—standing dead trees shaped by beaver activity\, emerging plant life\, and expansive wetland views. \nPlease note that trails are typically muddy in early spring. Waterproof footwear is strongly recommended. \nAll are welcome. This program is designed to create an inclusive\, supportive space to connect with nature and one another. Sign up at occainfo.org

SUMMARY:Guided Herp Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Wilber Lake on April 24th at 6pm for a guided Herp Walk to learn more about the world of amphibians. We will be meeting at the entrance on Wilber Lake Road\, located on the west side of the lake. This walk will be led by OCCA Field Technician Victoria Prouty and Dr. Elizabeth Bastiaans of SUNY Oneonta. \nAs we welcome spring’s warm\, rainy weather\, amphibians such as wood frogs and spotted salamanders begin their migration to vernal pools\, temporary pools fed by snowmelt and rain. They use these vernal pools to breed before heading back into the forest for the remainder of the year. We will explore the trail and visit nearby vernal pools\, where you will have the chance to observe and learn how to identify these fascinating species\, their egg masses\, and tadpoles. You may also see some forest-dwelling and lake-dwelling species\, such as red-backed salamanders and green frogs. \nThis experience highlights the vital role that these temporary pools play in wooded ecosystems and offers a unique opportunity to learn about amphibian life cycles and preferred habitats. Perfect for nature lovers of all ages\, this walk combines exploration\, education\, and a deeper appreciation for the wildlife that thrives right in our backyard. \nSign up at occainfo.org
